Post by Storklund2 »

Hi.

I got an lose knob on my NS4 73. Its the left EQ knob(low cut). It works fine but its lose.

Anyone knows how to repair or change the potensiometer?
And anyone who knows how to find the right pot?

Maybe try and tighten the collar nut? If it is truly the pot, you can get them from syntaur https://syntaur.com/Part-3178-Potentiometer-10KB-rotary. But it has to be soldered, so you'd have to take the cover off and unscrew the PC board from the top cover, unsolder the other pot and replace. If that's not the exact part, it could be an encoder https://syntaur.com/Part-5004-Encoder or the pot with center detente https://syntaur.com/Part-2086-Potentiom ... ter-detent I'm sure you can figure that out

Your NS4 is still under warranty I suppose, so I would suggest to have it repaired by official Nord service of you country (contact your point of purchase or country distributor)
