moose No power flows in the switch on the right. It is missing a connector when compared to the working switch on the left. Is this missing connector just a jumper? Can I just solder across to complete the connection?
compuease moose;360449 wrote0.3 ohm resistor? That's the problem it may be a component, diode, capacitor, resistor, etc.. I can't tell from the picture.. If it was just a jumper then yes you could just solder across however I doubt it is.
JacNoK P03 is likely a diode or a transistor (hard to tell from the photos) and replacing it with a jumper will probably not work, might even short out the battery. Not recommended. Jac

Not recommended. Jac Actually with the P designation I think this is a type of diode or mosfet which are typically used in low voltage, power management applications which would likely apply here. At least back a few years they were.
Foxrod It's a resistor equipped transistor (PNP digital transistor), they can be purchased at Sayal Electronics (1040 Fountain Street,Unit 3-4 Cambridge, Ontario)...
Foxrod moose;360492 wroteOk but why is it there? ...to simplify the circuit, decrease the use of multiple components. here ya go Resistor :D
moose Can you point me out what I should be looking for? SAYAL Electronics Web Site - 9/20/2013 4:18:45 PM My component doesn't seem to have 3 legs like the images at Sayal.
