Ok, I did not test the resistance (Volt/Ohm meter needs a battery,will pick one up first thing in the morning), now I removed all the tubes and when I shake them, 2 of them rattle...possibly no good? The aluminum looking tube seems to be soldered and is this tube removable?
Mr.truckernix when you say measure between the two smaller sockets and ground do you mean where the wires that come out of the can and onto the first tube?(I removed the cover and exposed a big capacitor) and on the other side of the can there is a post that is slightly exposed with a few wires solder to it? I know this sounds a little wierd, but i'm new to this.
I'm going to order the schematic for this particular model and I will scan it and email it to (will send you a PM with my email, if you would like the copy for your library).
You know I thought of a plastic fork for the tip but the comb sounds even better. Thank you sir for all the help so far.
