Title: replacing CH Fighterstick pots
Post by: Max on August 17, 2014, 08:30:36 AM

Can anybody walk me through the process? A Google search and CH forum only turned up a wiring diagram.

I see where the 4 screws under the rubber corner pads come out. Do I also remove the 3 visible screws on the base bottom? Once inside the case bottom, what's the procedure?

Thanks!

If you dig around at the CH-Hanger you might find some pictures or other info there.

That's where I found the wiring diagram. Did a search of the hardware forum as well as dialing back thru the pages. No joy.

Thanks Z! (the gent kind enough to hook me up with the replacement pots and refused compensation)

I guess the "disassemble" tag was the key word I missed.  :bhead

Just make sure that you remember which color wire goes to which contact on the potentiometer.
