The old A1 has developed a standard fault with the input selector "losing touch" (literally). Does anyone know where a selector like this can be found?
Below are the pics of similar selector sourced from Farnell, but I wasn't able to find anything like that online.
@Mark Hennessy's MF site: http://www.mhennessy1.f9.co.uk/mf_a1/mods.htm, bottom part of the page.
Just remember, before you rain fire, brimstone, garlic and holy water at the mention of MF, this one is about 27 years old, sounding beautifully (when I fudge the contacts) with absolutely everything original inside, including the PSU caps.
The input selector is normally easily serviceable being a 2-part design, but it became unserviceable after someone broke one of 2 plastic tabs that hold the plastic case with shaft and slider/runner and the PCB part together. I received the amp like that, with input selector cable tied together. Instead of "making a plan" with what I have, I'd prefer an easier and aesthetically acceptable route.
Much obliged.
EDIT (dankie Rudi): Re. Pictures - weird. It works in "preview" mode but once Saved, they disappear??
