skipper · 20th April 2011, 01:35 AM

Hi All,

I just received my Alps 50K audio log tapper pot and do not know how to wire it. I did a search on this site and the internet and cannot find a pin out schematic. Does anyone know what the pins are?

thanks

Just to make things simple, position the pot so the shaft is facing you. the pins from left to right are as follows. the far left pin is your signal input,the middle is your wiper which is your output and the right pin is grounded.
