If I get some positive responses I will dig the units out and provide
part numbers. This equipment is very old but was working until the
touch pad buttons quit responding. May need some caps but that is
another story.
 
The touch pads are like those microwave buttons. Some sort of plastic
over plastic layers that when you push on them they depress a little
and make some sort of connection to perform its function.
 
I doubt that these panels are still available, so is there a way to
recondition or whatever?

**You need to tell us which models you have. In general, without knowing
CRITICAL information, it can usually be said that behind the plastic
sheet are micro-switches, which may still be available from third party
suppliers.

Do you mean that the overlaying plastic has lost plasticiser and gone
rigid over time?

Consolidated Electronics lists them on their web site for $3.95 each. They
also have a price for Qty 10, so they must have a good stock level on hand.

It's been a while since ordering from them, but I've done business with them
before. Quick shipping, as I remember.
Cheers,

My order for two (2) chips from Vetco has shipped, I expect them to arrive by Thursday. I also purchased two sockets - getting the board out and the new chip in is not so much difficult as it would be a lot easier were there a socket. But, David Hafler was a cheap SOB, and a socket just was not in his repertoire.
 
No minimum purchase, and no handling charges. Well worth the small premium in price.

I used to install sockets in my projects. Eventually, I realized that these were my most unreliable components (followed by the electrolytic capacitors). Except for the rare and/or expensive parts, I now clip out the old ones and solder in the new ones.

It's just much that. There is something called chip creep. You might want to look it up. Also, sockets can get dirty and lose connection to random pins. In some circuits this destroys other components.
 
If the bias regulator in a 300 watt amp is on a socket or plug, and it gets a bit dirty or corroded and loses the connection, it can burn up like over fifty bucks worth of silicon.
 
When you work with that solderwick, you hit it repeatedly, NOT continuously. Ad try to hit the solder first instead of the board.

I however can speak about Vetco. I have been buying electronic stuff
from them for years. Good folks. And they have saved my butt more than
once when they had something I needed that day. Like negative 15 volt
voltage regulators. I had positive ones in stock but no negative ones
and a power supply in one of my CNC lathes needed one.
