6160 w/ a bad balance slider?

klutch

Turn it up some
The slider is cleaned, but when the slider is in the center detent, the right channel is REALLY weak. I can accommodate this by compensating w/ the balance slider to the right, but as soon as I increase the volume, it goes out of balance again, favoring the left channel. Accommodate again, turn up volume and again, the left channel is favored. :tears:
I have the schematic, and I have pics of the internals, if anyone thinks it would be helpful and can possibly help me troubleshoot it so I can repair.
I know it isn't the prettiest unit, but its perfect in every other way...and I hate to see that 70WPC just sitting in my shop. :tears:

Any thoughts?
 
just a note ... you may have to clean it more than once ... and use Deoxit first then Fader-Lube which is made for that type of slider I believe...
Hope that helps..
