Always On Light Mod for QRX-3500

[mslupczynski]

I have two QRX-3500's and I'm wondering if anyone out there knows of a similar front panel light modification (i.e. 9090, 4500, and perhaps others), that allows the panel lights to remain on regardless of the mode selection? I've searched the site and did find the mod's for those mentioned above, but no joy on the 3500.

I did my 9090, and 4500, but looking at the schematic for the 3500 it doesn't appear intuitively obvious to me; but perhaps someone has accomplished this already. I'd rather NOT plug and pray.

Any input greatly appreciated!

I've done this mod on many Sansui receivers . . . For the QRX-3500 you need to find S1h and jumper the input to output feeding the dial and pointer lamps (red line). You could also run a wire from the fuse directly to one of the dial light connections and bypass the switch altogether . . . . green line.

Thank you sir! Just what I needed.
