I’m ordering some Dunlop finish restorer or meguirs swirl and haze remover - also going to make the ding near the controls more invisible.

Never sell that one, like even if you got back what you got for it you would spend multiple times that over the next ten years trying to find another P that suits! (or you will be so made up with your Wal you won’t need a P...) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted January 30, 2021 Author Share Posted January 30, 2021 Today’s task. Sort the 2 point series/parallel switch which has been intermittent. Cleaner...nowt. Open up the back. Loose (off) wire. Easy peasy - look - an empty prong with a blob of solder, magic - that’s it. Yep, signal...good. Solder. Not an ounce of difference, well...no, just nothing. de-solder. touch test, signal from a couple...took a faff of hold/strum etc. Solder. Magic. Works and deffo series/parallel. still intermittent. FFS. Switch is goosed/on its way out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
