Fixing My Estes LED Electron Beam Controller Part 2


A strain relief knot was tied at the factory. It actually sits inside the unit. I pulled it out to measure the distance from the connection screw to the knot.
The little area the knot sits in is cramped, to a good measurement is needed. There is 5/8" from the side of the knot to the connection screw.






The connection terminals are friction fit into the plastic housing. I need small pliers to pull them out.








The wire was cut to the side of the knot.







Using a soldering iron, the old wires were removed from the terminals.
