Hello everyone. I hope someone here can push me in the right direction.
I have a p6 with the battery leak problem.

-When i opened up the unit the battery had already been removed but i managed to solder new wires on all the bad connections on the 367board. (at least as far as i know:)
I only have 1 bank LED lit up when i turn on the unit with tape disabled, so far so good...

-I havent put in a new battery yet, so of course the p6 cannot save data BUT! - I'm still having the following problems:
-Octave switch doesnt work
-Waveform switch doesnt work
-PW/PWM is just behaving plain weird - seems like the calibration is off somehow - i cant hear any osc when i turn the pot to 8-10 positions.

-Sub osc switch doesnt work.
All other things are working fine - so it seems that the problem is just connected to one area..


I actually have another P6 with battery leak problem too, but i havent repaired that board.. it works about 60%....
-I did try just for the heck of it to connect the unrepaired board, and i had the same problems except the waveform and sub osc did work (sub osc worked in "off" and in "2 oct" position, all other things in the same area (oct switch etc didnt work) - so it doesnt seem that the board with the pots is damaged, but something else in the signalpath, since it at least is working differently with 2 boards connected..

-Could someone give me any hints?

thanks!:)
