Re: instrument temp control testing question

[Dave Casey <dcasey@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It's your typical potentiometer (variable resistor). Connect your ohm 
meter across the two purple wires and see if it tracks the control 
position. It will probably be "noisy", i.e. have dead spots, but it can 
be cleaned to fix those. If it's completely burned up, there's probably 
a way to replace just the electronic part as it looks to be of typical 
design.
