Remove nut (17) and washer (18).
Remove FREQUENCY adjust potentiometer (19) from control panel.
Testing.
Remove FREQUENCY adjust potentiometer, paragraph 2-35.2.
Set multimeter for ohms and connect across outer terminals of potentiometer (19). Multimeter should indicate
between 4500 and 5500 ohms resistance.
Rotate potentiometer shaft counterclockwise as far as it will go.
Connect multimeter between center terminal and either outer terminal. Multimeter should indicate zero ohms
resistance.
Slowly, at an even rate, rotate the potentiometer shaft clockwise as far as it will go. Multi meter should increase
at an even rate from 0 to 5000 ohms.
If multimeter indication changes erratically or is not between 4500 and 5500 ohms when the rotation is com-
pleted, the potentiometer is defective and must be replaced.
