[sdiy] Oberheim OB-Xa internal ribbon cables

[Roman]

That's regular ribbon cable with 0.1'' pitch, I think it's 36-wires, easy to get in any electronic store as "flat ribbon cable". I guess that's the one connecting panel board with mainboard?  It's hard to believe the cable is broken in the middle, unless there are some clearly visible marks of abuse. I's expect them to break at the connectors first. Have you checked continuity with multimeter?  All panel pots are working as expected?

I need to order a new one, but I’ve never had to spec ribbon cables before so I don’t know what to look/ask for. Help?   thanks,  Eric    ______________________________  Synth-diy mailing list   Synth-diy at synth-diy.org  synth-diy.org synth-diy.org
