Well. Wiggling is not permanent. It seems as though sometimes I measure the 120V on the 2 white wires and sometimes not. Unless someone has a better suggestion, I plan to solder a bridge to the white wires on the terminal strip inside the case. Then I can proceed to chase the voltage through the xformer and onto the voltage control board. That terminal strip is pretty gnarly and not that I don't trust it, but.....

BTW, this is the power supply for my backup rig. I can power the Omni on my existing supply that drives the Jupiter. It would be nice to have a supply for the Omni when needed, and I have the 280. Might as well make it work.

Well, so far I proved that wiggling is legit way of fixing some things.
    After wiggling a few wires I now have 110 AC on the white wires

        YES... but "jiggling" is ill advised, and contraindicated....

;-)

        Good luck on the rest of the fix.
