Has anyone here bodged their drive or can you always restore the POT value and everything is the same as before?

take a reading before and you can restore if you get it wrong m8
one suggestion buy yourself the proper trimming tool for pot adjust ment . only about £1.50 from rs or maplins

Thanks dude.
not sure if this counts but ...... after i tweaked mine i can no longer get a reading from the pot. The drive still works.
Any ideas
yes i have buggerd it and yes it seems to be to late after i changed the pot. the pot never gave a reading ever since and it hasnt worked since and it proably never will again ... but i have added a external drive to it and im ok about that. Thats the risk you take if you do this mod !!!!
Whats the name of the "proper trimming tool for pot adjustment"? Do I just go to RS and say "I need a proper trimming tool for pot adjustment"?
Risked tweaking my pot, gone from sort of reading bulkpaq to not at all
Still reads originals (no good to me).
Using my pioneer now.
all i can think is that the pot is being physically damaged in these cases... you should still get a reading from the pot unless it is physically broken by turning too far or breaking the screw whilst removing the resin

hi maltloaf,
the problem is that altho the pot is fine, it jumps in reading from 1.8K to 0.8K... nothing I can do about it, and the multimeter is fine so the problem isn't there.
wish I'd never tried touching it now
if you ask at maplins or rs for a timming for pots they will know exactly what you want
rs no. is
