Sansui 7070

[linesetter]

Just bought a 7070 for $60.00 needs cleaning real bad ,use shaving cream to clean the face plate,and knobs looks great.Needs two lights for the station guide.Is it hard to do .? what bulbs do you use.How do you clean the contacts up.

Member dgwojo has the original 7v bulbs for Sansuis'. He might chime in or you can look him up and message him. You have to get to the inside of all the controls by removing the faceplate on the 7070 and taking all the boards loose from the front to get at them. It is a little bit of a pain but do-able. Use deoxit d5 as it is the best. You can get it at radio shack but parts express is cheapest. Also, check the solder connections on the back of the board the lights mount on. Alot of times just resoldering will bring the lights back.

Do an AK search on Deoxit. D5 is not recommended for pots or faders; use 100% Deoxit for that followed by Shield and then Faderlube. I just follow with faderlube and have been satisfied, but read the following. Here's the sheet from Deoxit.

The lamp holder assembly comes out without touching the pointer or dial string.
