From this information, we have identifiedthe \"weak link\" components most likely to fail or degrade the sound quality of your receiver. The refurbishment kit includes the following items:

• Set of TWO output relays to solve the problem of noise,intermittent output or complete loss ofoutput of one or both channels
• Tuner trim capacitor. This failure-prone component can cause intermittent operation or complete failure of the AM/FM tuner section. A bad trim capacitor may also cause the station displayindicator to show crazy numbers.
• Power supply resistor. This part was under-rated in the original design and often fails. When it fails, the entire receiver goes dead. Our replacement doubles the power rating of the original. Part is designated as R635 in MXR-130/150.

Theinstruction manual also shows how to clean thecontrol potentiometers (Volume, balance, tone, etc) and switchesfor continued, trouble-free operation.
