Hello everyone,
I'm hoping someone out there can help me out! I have a old Brent model A
that was in my cellar studio when it flooded out! (Something about 7 inches
of rain this week.) Anyway after the studio dried out for a couple days I
went down to throw and now my wheel will only operate in fast mode. There
is no off or any variable to the speed, the only way to stop it is to turn
it off. I am assuming that water got into the foot petal and did something
to the wiring. Please help me find a cheap way to fix this problem. I'm
not afraid of wiring but don't know how to pop the foot open. Deadlines
are pending and pots need to be made HELP!

Thanks in advance!
