Anybody know where to source these original potentiometers??

Re: Alps 50KAX2 12mm shaft
Google "alps motorized potentiometer 50k"
Is this it? https://www.ebay.ca/i/323782414955?c...SABEgIHlfD_BwE
Maybe this pdf wil be helpfulLast edited by R_J; 06-13-2019, 10:49 AM. -
Re: Alps 50KAX2 12mm shaft
Mr RJ please, aside from it being a potentiometer, the one you linked and mine that I need are nothing alike.Comment

What's up with yours? These can be stripped down and the insides cleaned and repaired.Comment

Re: Alps 50KAX2 12mm shaft
It has failed completely. This one can not be stripped down as it is riveted by design.Comment

Re: Alps 50KAX2 12mm shaft
so drill them.Comment

Re: Alps 50KAX2 12mm shaft
And than what? It has failed completely, snapped middle leg from within, and besides, how would you ever attach it back again?Comment

Re: Alps 50KAX2 12mm shaft
with long screws and nuts.
if nothing else, you may be able to replace the wafers with the tracks on from a non-motorised pot.Comment

Re: Alps 50KAX2 12mm shaft
Hi Mr. RJ. Is that RK27112MC, do you know where I can get complete datasheet? Can the little nudge be removed easy? The nudge on the original one is below the shaft just above the contacts.Comment

Re: Alps 50KAX2 12mm shaft
it's soft metal (zinc) you can remove it with a file or a small hacksaw.
you could even snap it off with pliers but it may take a chunk of the base with it.Comment

Re: Alps 50KAX2 12mm shaft
https://www.ebay.com/itm/351631436027 I did't look close enough at my first post, it was indeed the wrong style pot this should be a lot closer
The original might be a custom pot, as for the nudge/lug, you could drill a small hole for the new pot's nudge/lug locationAttached FilesLast edited by R_J; 06-17-2019, 09:41 AM.Comment

Re: Alps 50KAX2 12mm shaft
From what I can see the pinout is the correct order only that the distance from back mount for the gear assembly to the front pot mount is 21.5mm on the original and 30.5mm on the new one. Dont know how will that look like when mounted.
Being out of soft metal in the base as Mr STJ says, how well will these pots handle stress from cutting and drilling in their shaft? I˙ve found an original type but with 30mm shaft in China.Comment

Re: Alps 50KAX2 12mm shaft
cutting the shaft is easy with a dremel or saw - it's usually aluminium.Comment

Re: Alps 50KAX2 12mm shaft
It looks like your original pot has the second wafer mounted closer to the motor end on the shaft so check the distance from the front wafer to the gear mount, it may only be the second wafer that is in the wrong position.
it looks like the distance between the front and rear pot wafer is differentComment

i have a 2017 volvo that i upgraded the stereo in but the week link now is the SBC codec the head unit uses to transmit audio. i took the unit apart and we have a UGKZ2 combo module with a CSR8311 bt chip. after some research it is my understanding that ALPS made another combo module that used the CSR8350 chip. this chip is capable of aptx. https://vehicle-electronics.biz/cont...s-alps-modules
my question is, would it be possible to swap out this UGX module as plug n play? what about replacing the CSR chip itself? any idea where to get either?

Hi everyone in this forum,
My name is Phong, and I have been a handyman working for hotels for 20 years. It's becoming a bit too heavy for me to carry the PTAC units to wash them every year. I'm looking for ideas on how to convert my 3-wheel dolly into a 12V motorized dolly. I would appreciate any suggestions on where to buy the parts or any general help to get me started with this task. The capacity should be around 100 to 200 pounds, but my current 3-wheel dolly has a total capacity of about 600 pounds. Sorry if my english is not too good.
Thank you for your help!... -
I had taken out the pot for my Denon DAP-5500 as it was scratchy and would sometimes drop a channel til I would work it and would come back for few days. Decided I had time today and would just desolder from board and disassemble and clean properly. My only issue is I forgot to take a pic of the orientation of each of the white parts and how they were aligned. Due to the shape of the rod and the cutouts on each white piece they can only go one of two ways. I did have frame of mind right after I took off the first (back) and I know how that last white piece was orientated, note the main shaft is... -
Hi,
I'm currently in the process of re-capping a NOS (new old stock) Sparkle ATX-400PN (from the late-2000s), which was chock-full of Teapos and CapXons
. Am looking to put a yummy mix of NCCs, Panos and Rubys in their place.
Here's the problem I ran into: The 3.3V rail is filtered by a single 4,700uF/10V Teapo... The problem? This thing is only 10mm wide, and a wider (12mm) cap will not fit! I've searched the "big three" shops (Mouser, Digikey, Newark/Farnell) and all the 4,700uF/10V I found were at least 12mm wide. The closests matches I could... -
Hello. I am working on a circuit board that is part of a motorized HDTV lift. The circuit board belongs to the controller component that tells the motor to either raise or lower the HDTV height.
The controller started sparking when the 29V power supply was attached and the green light on the power supply would go out as soon as it was plugged into the controller board. This indicated a shorted component and I was able to identify which component it is that is causing the short. When I remove this component, the short is cleared.
The problem is finding a replacement component....
