'84 F-100 bass pot not working

Post by Tundra »

I have a c. 84 F-100 II. The bass pot doesn't do anything. I checked to see if there was look wire but things looks okay. I can see the finger moving in the pot when I turn it. I guess I can clean it before I re-solder the connections. The treble pot works fine. I played with all the switches and the bass pot does not respond. I thought pots were fairly robust and last forever. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

You might check out the wiring diagrams and picture diagrams we have in the Gallery: F-100 Wiring Schematics and Picture Diagrams.

Might just need a some contact cleaner.

Hope this helps.
