Potentiometer on Super Off Road pedal
« on: October 11, 2009, 11:14:12 am »
Hey,

Newbie question here. One of the pots went out on the foot pedal of my Super Off Road and I can not figure out how many ohms a new pot needs to be. I can't find the number in the manual. Anyone have any knowledge on this?

Thanks,
Chris

It's common knowledge.  Unfortunately I don't have that knowledge at the moment.  Off Road cabs have 2+ players, so you could pull the pedal assembly from one of the other players and measure.  I think it's 10K, but I'm probably wrong.

Might even be stamped right on the pot itself.

I've looked at the side of the other pots and no dice.

Problem is, the previous owner tried to fix it with a 5 ohm pot and it's not working. I was thinking he just didn't have the right size.

Thanks for helping,
Chris

I would have thought it would be 5K ohms - this is standard for most arcade controllers.

It's a heavy duty pot, 5k resistance, linear taper, 2 watt.
