Hi. I'm using a modern ANALOGUE multimeter to do the resistance checks on my KX1. I have performed the visual inspection and everything looks good; There were no problems during construction YET some of the resistance checks fail, and I'm wondering what it could be...
U3 pin 3 is < 5 ohms ... good. But U3 pins 5, 6 and 7 are all around 2K. They're supposed to be >10k. I checked the calibration with a 2.7k resistor and pins 5, 6 & 7 to ground all come in below that resistor by around .7k. Also, I get odd behaviour with D2/D3. With switch S2 in one position, I get infinite resistance for the banded end of D2 and D3 regardless of the position of S1. With switch S2 in the other position, I get 1.8k on both D2 and D3 regardless of the position of S1. One of those is supposed to be >10k. So something is wrong! But I'm not sure what...
