#53 HP 410A vtvm repair part 1
« on: May 28, 2016, 06:04:41 PM »
In this video we go through this old HP 410a VTVM and replace all the paper capacitors.
We also have to fabricate a new DC probe since the original is damaged.

Mr. Carlson's Lab, Are your capacitors installed backwards?:

So I got lucky today and was rambling through some old parts drawers. I found a pack of 20 meg resistors. I went through them and found one that read 22.1 ohms. The DC probe is now complete. I can now troubleshoot the ohms setting and complete this unit.
