Another tip...R032 (that on the left) reads ok? it feeds the COM node of the adjustment.

I didn't lift a leg, but in circuit it reads as in service manual.Another tip...R032 (that on the left) reads ok? it feeds the COM node of the adjustment.
Thanks for all your suggestions guys, over the week I am going to lift all the resistors to confirm.
@restorer-john I have already replaced this previously (with a 50V rating). Just now, I have confirmed that it is continuous on the negative side with the WHT wire, and the positive side is continuous with C10.
Actually, I have trouble imagining how the switch works? It has 2 white wires (I assume from the power supply) but it doesn't seem to be directly connected to the 3-way selector. Are they supposed to be decoupled or am I not seeing a connection between them?
Hi, the Switches are Just mechanicaly connected to the 3 way selector!
I Just finished the repairing of my 525. Main Problem was the yellow powerswitch. In closed State it hat a Résistance of 800 Ohms.

Resultate Output voltage 17 and -4,7 Volts.
I removed the switch and shorten the two white wires for testing.
Testing process:
The 3 way selector in off postion.
Then Plug in.
The motor should Starts Running as fast as it could, because of no Speed regulation is activ . Voltage is 18 V and - 4,9 V .
Voltage messurament was done After i also replaced the 3 Elcos on the Power Board.
If you Switch to 33 or 45 it should reduce the Speed. If you Just testing the Motor without the plate , the Motor stutters in 33 or 45 Mode. That’s normal , the smooth Rotation Just came up with the Weight of the plate.
I found an simular Switch in my „grabbelkiste“. It‘s from an old Radio Flipclock, but i think you could them as New or NOS Part.
Replacing the 3 Elcos from the Power section should be a Good idea.
Good luck
Regards Tim

Hi Tim,
To clarify, after replacing the switch, you are getting 18V and -4.9V, and the speed is 33rpm and 45rpm?
Danke.
