Threshold pot help required please

trigger

New member
I've a problem with the threshold pot on my Euro Sabre:stretcher:.
Do any of you guys know the spec of the pot i require please.
The white wire has snapped off the rear of the pot:sadwalk:. It has snapped off too close to the pot itself to enable me to resolder the wire back on. So a new control is needed.:shrug:. to put it back in full working order :clapping:
 
Look at the backside of the pot, it will give you a number. Probably it will read 100k
It is a Linear pot made by Alpha sold by Mouser, Digi-Key, Jameco, etc.
Common cheap pot. Look up 100K 16mm pot you'll find it's only about $2.00

or you can go with the 12mm pot, a bit smaller and gives extra room, you will need a diff. knob as the pot shaft is smaller.
 
Another option would be to spend $15 and ship it to Tesoro, They will fix it and ship it back to you for FREE!
 
Hi There. The only problem with that,is i'm in the UK:ukflag:. And they would charge me more than that to send it back to tesoro. Plus to have it repaired here would be quite expensive:sad:
