TS-930S Help needed - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

Ralphs House · 8th May 2022, 8:38 pm

Replaced three damaged pots on a TS-930S today but due to the dog, the fascia dropped forward and a green wire became detached. I have a feeling it goes to back of VFO control. Does anyone have any pics of the back of the fascia for reference?

The detached green wire is circled. I have a feeling it goes to solder point arrowed. Anyone help me out on this?

In case you don't have it, you can download the 92-page Kenwood TS-930 Service Manual from 'manualslib' at this link, which might help:

https://www.manualslib.com/manual/83...d-Ts-930s.html

The 50-page Instruction Manual is at this link:

https://www.manualslib.com/manual/35...d-Ts-930s.html

Hopefully, another forum member who may have a TS-930S might be able to check the back of their fascia and answer your query.

Good luck with it.

Thank you David. One thing the diagrams lack is the wiring between PCBs. If anyone has or is working on a TS-930s and willing to take pic of back of function control, I'd be very appreciative.

Did you get this sorted, or are you still needing help with it?

Not solved no. Checked all the diagrams but they don't cover the harness. Happy to open it up again.
