Title: Crack RCA jacks part number [resolved]
Post by: DustDoggy on January 08, 2022, 03:14:42 PM
So I was just going through the resistance checks of my crack build and it's likely I over heated one of the RCA connectors. Does anyone have a part number for them or does anyone know if the ones from mouser part #NYS367-2 will fit without modifying the chassis holes? Thanks

The Mouser part number you posted will fit.  What resistance numbers are you getting that are concerning?  Typically we find sometimes that solder can dribble out of the center cup and short out to the outside portion of the jack.  If this has happened you should be able to break the connection apart with some cutters.

I was getting a an infinite reading on the left jack but after some further testing I realized it was something to do with the wiring on the pot itself. Resoldered a couple connections there and it solved the issue. Everything checked out after that and listening to it right now and am very impressed with the sound! Thanks for the speedy reply!
