Once you have pin 2 right you will be able to test 1 and 3 for proper orientation.
Thanks for the feedback.
I'm doing this test with the TV on the bench. The TV switch only connects to the TV one way. On the other end of the switch wire the pins are maked 1 thru 3 with pin 2 being common. I tested the old and new switches both on and off the TV. The switch only moves about a quarter turn. Which is the total movement as the butterfly plate. With pins 1 and 2 connected I can set the Idle setting.
With the switch off the TV turned full counter clock wise or idle stop there is continuity. But, turned fully clock wise or full open the is no continuity with either 1 to 2 or 2 to 3 with either switch? I was interperting the FSM test to show continuity with the switch at both full open and full closed. And an open circuit in between.
This post was a sanity check to see if I was missing something or interperting the test wrong.
I'm still confused.
At full open and leads connected 1 to 3 I have continuity?

Thanks again. Dave
