37-116 Restoration
#26

Question...

What are the three leads from the three section capacitor, part #89 connected to inside the can? It's a 30-4466 (no catalog entry) with 0.1, 0.1 and 0.8 uF capacitors. It's in rectangular tin can above the chassis with two tabs holding it in place.

Maybe I need to be "more smarter", but I don't understand how it can only have three leads when two of them connect to the same point, part 85. That would suggest the two 0.1uFs are grounded by internal connection to the can and the can is connect to the chassis by the two tabs that lock it in place. That seems like a lame way to ground something.

My guess is, and my dog agrees with me, that the leads would be:
1 - Common with one side of "upper" 0.1 and one side of the 0.8 connected to it. This connects to #88.
2 - Other side of 0.8 connected to #85.
3 - Lower 0.1 connected to #85.
Can - Both 0.1's connected to it and it connected to the chassis via the two tabs.

I suppose I'll find out when I take it apart.

   

Can't think of anything witty.
