Ron Ramirez Wrote:Murf, if you're still here, I see you are advertising for another chassis now.

Before you give up...did you try cleaning the power switch as Sean suggested?


Sure did.Used radio shack
cleaner.
Re-built the bakelight block cap tonight just for grins.No change.
Got to be the tranny.
Chassis available from one of our guy's for $25 plus shipping,but it is untested other than the tranny works.
If he tried it using a variac,that would be safe wouldn't it?
Thanks Ron,this is a very helpful website.Keep up the good work.
