D&R4000 Mkii Meter Boards

[Siegfried Meier]

Hey guys,

So I've found 2 resistors (same ones on both boards) that seemed to be burnt out on the meter boards. The dumb sh*t before me replaced all the meter chips, and I have a feeling he didn't use proper replacements. He gave them to me as well, so I've fixed those 2 resistors and put back all the original chips.  Now, I'm really confused as to how these meter boards get put back into place - or whether they were even connected properly before...

There's 2 meter boards (one with the sends and one with the C/R outs and inserts) that both attach to the main board with pins that stick all the way through - some connect all 3 boards, some only connect 2).  Can anyone tell me or point me in the right direction as to the pinout or how I put this back together again properly?

Someone put back dots on there - no clue what they mean.  They didn't seem to have any reference to how the boards were connected when I opened it up...?

Thanks!
Sig

Figured it out!!  The black dots are an indication of exactly where the pins should go, which ones go all the way through and which ones don't.  Very cool!

Only thing I see now is that the right side meter has a faint glow on one of the LED's halfway up when there's no audio pumping through the master section.  Only a minor annoyance, can't really seem to figure out why that is?
