Author Topic: Installation Instructions for a 3-way Q-Switch for an Essence (Read 388 times)

Folks,

Anyone have a copy of the installation instructions for a 3 way Q-switch on an Essence? I got the switch today, but didn't get the instructions. My guess is it was just a simple oversight, no biggie, but rather than bother Mica for it (I know she's busier than a one-armed paperhanger!) if anyone can hook a brother up, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,

Alan

HI Alan,
You will find .pdf instructions here ; Is this the correct file that you need ?

Wolf,

I think so. I see its for a SPDT (single pole, double throw) switch. Will this work with a three way Q? My guess is yet, but someone smarter than me needs to chime in .... ;-)

Thanks,

Alan

Alan, what is the contact description for the switch that you have ?
I noticed SPDT as well ____.
Perhaps the above instructions are for an older version ? I do not know what the current version is. The above is what I found on this site .

3 position would be similar, but probably uses either a 3 position (on-off-on) SPDT or possibly a DPDT on-on-on. Been a little too long since my days at the Mothership so I don't remember which.

Thanks , my thoughts were as per your description. I was just helping for the search. I am sure Mica will chime in and tell it like it really is ____

I just bought and installed one of these, lemme know if you want me to scan my instructions - they are a basically the same as the one linked above.

Oh, and I think the three position switch is on-on-on.

Ojo,

That would be great if you could scan and send them to me, or post a link to it! Thanks!

Adding the scan to the club knowledge base would be swell.

All right, I'll scan the instructions tomorrow, and I'm happy to post it to the forum as well. Share the wealth, that's what I say!

You know, I can make a good connection, but my soldering doesn't really look like that..........
