    Alps vintage wafer switch 2 pole 12 position

    I have the schematic of the kenwood I am working on. It shows the wafer switch which is the on/off - A speakers - B speakers - A + B speaker switch. I don't trust the wiring
    because it doesn't seem to add up for me. If I can identfy at least one of the pins I should be able to rewire it correctly or at least make sure it currently wired correctly but I don't know how to find this out. Pictures are in my thread "trying to refurbish and repair my kenwood kr-6030. I would appreciate the help.

    If you have the schematic, try tracing continuity with a multimeter to identify the common pin first. Once you find the common, the 12 positions should map out logically for the A/B/A+B selector.

      I identified the pins for you, on your other thread, I guess you didn't believe me
      See your other post for what is wired wrong on the spkr terminal

        NOT TRUE R_J. Not only did I believe you I rewired everything to your exact specs. I may have posted this before you answered the problem. It was #3 pin that gave you what you needed and I didn't even think of that. I think I though I should put the question in another thread but I believe it was before your help. I'm waiting on a potentiometer to replace and I can crank her up and see if she flies. I sure hope I put the ground in the right place for the new lamps. The lamps I bought are supposed to be bi-polar I just guessed at what could be ground on the meter lamps and the 5 position lamps. The dial lamps were a no-brainer. LOL, no-brainer coming from me. Anyway thanks all for the help. I don't know how to close a thread so folks won't try to help. Take care R_J and thanks Eddie, I just put the jumper where the schematic showed it to go. I'll check it before I fire it up. Cheers!

          sounds like 4way to me.
