Now I’m thinking about it ( P1 ) I did swap this out for a side pot , could it be the wrong way around ? ( when compared to the original top pot )
That won’t make an operational difference.
It’s wired as a variable resistor, meaning it’s a two-terminal device, so the only thing that would happen if you put it in the wrong way around is the reaction of the pot would feel backward… turning clockwise would decrease the value, but otherwise will operate electrically normal.
So carry on.

P1 & R5 , min = 224.3mv max = 0.423v
P2, min = 1.893v max = 4.105v
V+ = 074.4v
V- = 074.5v
C+ = 044.7v
C- = 045.1v
Being honest I am struggling, might be my autism might be that I just ain’t smart enough.
I’m trying my best to learn as I go and not **** you guys off , if I have I’m sorry.
I am the go to guy to fix any issues with a building and I’m pretty good at fixing cars . I can’t let you guys down now and I’m not ready to give up yet ( but I’ve come close today)
Sometimes I don’t understand what’s being asked of me , I’m trying guys, Zen , Gary , William and Mike and all others thanks for bearing with me on this .
I think that if you pissed off ZM he would let you know. I for 1 am following intently hoping to learn something, mostly thru osmosis, and am really glad to not be in your shoes on this 1. Unfortunately, I've been avoiding 2 projects that are experiencing technical difficulties, 1 of which I got part way thru with the kind assistance of @rayma and others, need to get back to that in the near future.
Well if others are learning that’s good , I certainly am 😁( my brain hurts )
This has been a rollercoaster of a journey but that was down to my ignorance, several times I thought “ here we go it’s ready “ only to be kicked back down again, now I’m not sure and not too confident of ever hearing it .
👍🏻
Good luck with your project btw

don't despair. lemme think some
as always, I'm juggling several jars, so I need time
just ease, Sunday evening etc.
for now I need to grasp pic in post #357, reposted here - is there something broken, or your measurements are no good
will comment later, chores now

More than likely it’s my measurements Zen, hence the diagram of where I thought I should place the dmm probes .
Stare at Goats for a week
Just stop and let it soak
I have a feeling sometimes that best hours spent on some project are those - while having a pile of parts in front of me, looking at them all and assembling it just mentally

Here’s a photo of the output stage when I first removed it ( note the brown wire is no longer connected)
Autism can be tough. You are doing great so don't you worry! Whether someone is smart or not, wrapping your head around electronics is a big undertaking and for most people is a lifelong journey.
I haven't had any time lately to sit down and read through the thread intently. However, Zen is the guy to listen to. You eat an elephant by taking one bite at a time. In other words, try to focus on the small pieces of the project rather than the whole picture so you do not get overwhelmed.
Well Gary is now back from his vacation and he immediately pointed that I had omitted something rather important from a drawing he had made for me.
Once he confirms if I now have things correct I’ll update the thread .
Basically I’m an **%%ing idiot 😁

wait till tonight, I'll post my dilemmas regarding FE
