I just received the radio. It is complete but the vibrator is not working. I have checked connections on the 2 sides of the relays, and they are fine. I have cleaned them with contact cleaner and used a very thin file to eliminate any rust. Still nothing. I have also applied 6V directly to the vibrator on the table, still nothing.

I am thinking about using a solid state one. Has anybody tried this?
