Re: Need some advice on this V-Glide
so in testing the resistors on the glide do I just need to test from post to post? All but the first 2 resistors gave me a reading. I got a good read on the last one but the first the meter didn't change. Just wanna make sure I'm doing it right. So I can start looking for the resistor.

Re: Need some advice on this V-Glide
You can measure on either side of the resistor "wires" if you scrape a clean spot on the wires - as well as post-to-post to ensure the solder/ring connector is integral on each.
Just to be sure - are the values you CAN measure, close to the values shown in the diagram provided by CTD in his first response? |

Re: Need some advice on this V-Glide
This is what I got so far Joe. The only one close was #38 in the diagram. The rest were way off.

Re: Need some advice on this V-Glide
The ones You measured are within tolerance, the correct values should be:
300Ω 390Ω 300Ω 750Ω 1000Ω 2200Ω The actual values are not that critical as long as the total resistance (from white to purple) is somewhere around 5kΩ. |

Re: Need some advice on this V-Glide
Radio Shack has resistors like these. Those are 5% tolerance resistors. I wouldn't even worry if all you can find are 10%.

Re: Need some advice on this V-Glide
are they still alive online? All the stores in my area are shut down.

Re: Need some advice on this V-Glide
Radio Shack closed more than half of their stores, so if you no longer have one near by, You can order the resistors online (links below).
You you will pay mostly shipping since the resistors are 15 cents each, but Radio Shack probably charges $2 for one in a cardboard package. 300Ω 390Ω 750Ω 1000Ω 2200Ω You will also need some non-insulated ring terminals to crimp on each end of the resistor. |

Re: Need some advice on this V-Glide
Google or Yellow Page for any local "Electronics Supply" store - components are essentially what they do. Those are very inexpensive parts.
