Potentiometer replacement for 12" RGB Display
Posted by: DracheMitch on 2021-07-23 13:07:55
The potentiometers on the back of the display were broken off (save 1) when I got the display, but it seems to work otherwise.

Attached are what they look like. Will these form Amazon work as a replacement?

You'll need to determine their physical size, footprint, value in ohms, if they are linear (probably) or logarithmic taper, and the power dissipation needed in watts. Reviewing the schematics would give you at least ohms and possibly the wattage. Measurement of the PCB will determine the physical characteristics.
