Yes the wires are still connected and replaced under the chassis.
But due to the colored rubber being gone on the top side, along with everything being buried in the shield I am not certain what goes where on the tone control.
What a dumb design!
I did map out the bottom side and rewired it according to what I am guessing are the correct colors. Question is where the 2 connection are on the control side.
Have been trying to figure it out by checking continuity, but that's not working out either.
Frustrated, murf
