RE: Magneplanar 1.6QR ribbon repair/replacement

If there is a break in the transducer, a ohmmeter reading will indicate very high (or infinite) resistance vice around 4 ohms as it should be.

There is also the fuse-holder and various connections in there. I assume those were checked as well.

It's possible the squeeze connectors that are recessed up into the frame cutout might be an issue. It's difficult to probe those directly, so you would normally attach a meter to the wires that lead out from there.

I suspect a removal of the sock would identify the problem fully, but you'd have to remove all those confounded staples at the bottom to do that. :)

Cheers,

Dave.
