3 pin volume knob : NEEDED
Hello everyone!
I'm in the process of upgrading my HL Leo 2A6 board to a Clark TK60 - and it seems it needs a volume knob in addition to its existing speaker 2 pin connection for the sound to work. Ayy.
Its something like this apparently:
https://www.ebay.com/p/2pcs-Portable-10 ... 100623.m-1
My, what a link.
Anyway, anyone in the US area able to help me out? I don't want to wait a few weeks for this to come in all the way from China.
Please let me know!
Thank you!

Re: 3 pin volume knob : NEEDED
Should be able to find one in the states, or maybe a Radio Shack, if you still have one around. I can check at our local store and see if they've got one.
Will these work?

I have three pin plugs that will fit the HL/Taigen MFU's, with wires already attached. If you need a couple, or want me to check RS, just let me know.

Re: 3 pin volume knob : NEEDED
I buy mine wired up from Amazon, take two days to arrive. Just flip middle wire around and you're all set

PM your address and I'll send you one of my many, many spares. No charge. From The D it should get to you by Saturday, Monday at the latest.

I will PM you my address.
Thank you ever so much.
Edit: I just realized; but are they wired? If they aren't - I might have to go looking for compatible wires nearby.

What do you mean by "flip" exactly?

Re: 3 pin volume knob : NEEDED
I think they will - I'll ask Google to find me a Radio Shack somewhere in Naperville or Bolingbrook that might have wires that are compatible; please don't go out looking yourself - you'll make me feel bad.capt midnight wrote:Should be able to find one in the states, or maybe a Radio Shack, if you still have one around.

Re: 3 pin volume knob : NEEDED
You have to rearrange the wires to work with the board. So the middlee wire gets swapped with the end wire and the end wire goes to the middle pin.

The last time someone said something was simple, like rewiring electronics for example; I wasn't able to sleep because the instructions were unclear enough for me to lose sleep over.c.rainford73 wrote:You have to rearrange the wires to work with the board.

I'm guessing I'll have to desolder the two wires and solder them on again?

Re: 3 pin volume knob : NEEDED
Correct. The first pin stays the same and the middle and last one flip no need to solder, just remove with a sharp knife from Jst connector and plug back in
