Column of membrane buttons not working

2015-02-03 by rob.ocelot@...

Hi everyone,


I'm currently in the process of Frankensteining a non-working Polaris with parts scavenged from another dead one in far worse shape. I also have a good working Polaris to test any components.


At the moment I'm testing the Frankenstein's membrane panel and the panel boards in the Good Polaris. So far almost every function works except for the sweep rate slider (probably dead) and the far right column of membrane buttons and LED's do not function, along with the Detune button.


Anybody know which panel matrix trace corresponds to these buttons?


N.B. Frankenstein's membrane is a new Paul DeRocco replacement.
