Separate the coil from the contact pack |
| awemawson:
Open up the contact pack and carefully clean each contact with a scalpel. You could get special contact cleaning slightly abrasive pads for this job, but I've not seen any for years! Test operation before replacing ! |
| awemawson:
Then pop it back in. Whole operation took just over an hour - now there are a further how many relays :bang: However glad to say it's cured the chattering so a bit of progress :clap: |
| lordedmond:
another step forwards on the journey congrats on getting the drawing with the same date as the machine it will help i am sure Stuart |
| vtsteam:
Glad the relay is functioning again, awmawson! :thumbup: I still use the old writing paper trick -- slid between contacts held closed for cleaning carbon from breaker points on my old tractors, and I have a point file or two in case of spikes and pits. I think you can still buy point files here at automotive supply stores. |
