  • Two Speed Leslie with only one speed



    I have a Hammond T-212 with two speed leslie. My problem is that the leslie will only run in slow speed. I have checked the switch and it seems to be working fine. I remove the leslie and put 110volts to both motors and they work fine. I do have a wiring schematic for this organ and I am not getting the voltage between pin 2 &amp; 3 on the leslie plug. I do get 110volts between pin 3 &amp; 4 when the fast,slow switch is in either fast or slow. I am a novice when it comes to electronics. I need some help.</P>


    Thanks</P>

      I have had a leslie 147 which didnt switch speeds all the time and it turned out to be the relay,</p>

      I cleanded the contacts of the relay with very fine sandpaper and also retensioned the relay spring by bendind the anchor points a little and now it works like new.

        It's almost always the relay. I have a 122 that was rebuilt with a solid state relay which generally never goes bad, and even that wouldn't switch until I fussed with it.

          I think the OP is referring to the T's internal leslie, not a cabinet!</P>


          Same thing though, it sounds like the relay and I think that's in the amplifier chassis. My service manual is the basic one without any disassembly instructions, so it doesn't tell me.</P>

          It's not what you play. It's not how you play. It's the fact that you're playing that counts.
