I fixed tv's in the 80's, Msgt in the Airforce doing avaionics , unidata and the network for UTMD. I have lots of containers full of resistors, caps, ic's, diodes, pots. you name it I probably have it stored away. I used to build all kinds of circuits, lately been fixing the all the kids cars. I usually can fix anything mechanical or electronic. just have a knack.

So, the $20 question...

For this part, you may have found it locally at a Radio Shack, had some
parts laying around, or ???
Here outside Philadelphia, I continue to seek a parts supplier that doesn't have a $20 minimum order for parts not normally stocked. Even that was from
an internet parts supplier, so it's hurry up and wait. Haven't found any
other local brick and mortar (outside Philadelphia) stores.

If not at Radio Shack, where are you getting parts and skirting the
shipping, waiting, and minimum order?

Off subject but just stupid in my case, I lost vertical on my tv lst night.
I opened it up found a bad cap in the vert supply 10uf at 100v and
transposed the numbers when going throught the caps, inserted a 100uf 10v
cap and blew the supply resistor. A new resistor ( why I have resistor on
the brain today ) and the right cap and all is well. I seem to be
transposing numbers a lot lately. Brain damage finally showing up.

OK. Nevermind, I got what you mean.

Not pull as push/pull, but rather remove.

Having a Pi and using it to actuate a solenoid to push a button is
like going back into the dark ages with the star ship enterprise. Pull
the button and wire in a solid state relay.
