Well, Got the Box all wired up, and Nothing!
Checked other (new) kbic-120 board . Nothing.
Tested MC-60 board Nothing.
WTH. OK, cant be 3 bad boards can it?
So had my MC-60 board hooked up, trying to check A+ with a volt meter, Tired, careless, couldn't see real good ............BAM...........
Shorted my meter lead to the chassis.
Scared the ##)) out of me.
Decide to test Pot, Bad!
Thanks (in part) to The bad POT from Radio shack, I fried my MC-60 board.
Got another pot wired up, both used and new kbic-120 are working, reverse switch only had one direction.
Off to radio shack to change out the Pot and DPDT switch, It was a Bad DPDT switch too.
But at least it is working now.
Bummer I fried My MC-60 though.
Don't know if it is worth trying to fix. I don't know too much about electronics.
Maybe if I see something obviously burned up, I can try replacing it.
I got this one for $35.00 shipped, but he raised then to $45.00 shipped.
I would say test all pots and switches before installing from now on.
