C32 Auto-On Chassis Mounted Relay - Picture anyone?

[geebjen]

Does anyone happen to have a picture of the original chassis mounted relay in their C32? I'm working on one that was missing the relay. I was able to get an original, but I'd like to be able to see how it was mounted.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

I have a shell I used to make a video and it is on eBay under C32 Ribbon Kit. See if that works for you. If not I can take a good picture but there are no Wires attached as it was used in a Beta Testing our ribbons. Good Luck.

Thanks. I've actually seen that video! But as far as I can tell, the auto on board and relay are not installed in that c32. If you have a c32 that has the relay and can take a picture that would be awesome. Appreciate your time

You are correct........ My notes indicated it was removed when I made the video since no Ribbon Cables went to it..... Sorry. Youtube: "McIntosh C32 Large Capacitor Replacement" may give you a glimpse at the very end of the video? Good Luck.
Oh, there was a service bulletin for that board. See attachment.

Thanks again, and I've watched that one too. Unfortunately his has the later Auto-On PCB with the Relay on-board. It seems the early ones with the chassis mounted relay are pretty rare. Again, I appreciate your tips.

YouTube happened to put this video in my feed today:

And it has great views of the chassis mounted relay. I've attached a screenshot.

Hope this helps someone else out some day.

Thanks for the link. That was a tremendous amount of time and effort to remove all those ribbon and jumper cable headers "And" make the cables for it. Well done but a lot of work.
