Update!
I have the Pulse Amp rebuilt. The amp works perfectly and looks great too.
Unfortunately the Tormat does not trip a record. I tried the test again, where a jumper is put on the Pulse Amp RCA input and touched onto TP-C (TP-C is a small voltage respective of ground) and again the mech does not trip. I removed the Tormat controller and replaced C507, which couples the amp to the 2050 tube. It still won't trip by either the memory unit nor the TP.
But good news, I can now trip the mech using a 1.5v "AA" battery put onto the Pulse Amp input, scratched to chassis ground. I believe the 1.5v battery is much higher than the Tormat Memory unit output, so that leads me to a weak 2050 tube.
I ordered two 2050's this morning and I hope to have them by the weekend.
In the mean time I've removed the Tormat Electrical Selector (Button switch assembly) from the front panel. It is really very dirty and nasty so I'll be going through it. The service slide switch was so mechancially dirty/bad that its spring wouldn't return it back to off. I have that switch cleaned out and working perfectly, as well as the service rotary switch. Along with it's mounting bracket, they look and work as new.
Question for anyone.
What is the easiest way to clean the main selector switch assembly (The whole unit)? the dirt/grime is pretty well stuck on everything. Is there a way to clean individual selector switch contacts? They look like they were not meant to be disassembled.
I can remove/clean/service the removable devices such as total count meter, solenoid, bars etc and manually scrub the grime but am looking for a viable shortcut, if one exists. Can I scrub it with soap and water then blow it dry?
Thanks!
