OK everything in the blue box is a footswitch and the connector cable. What part are you not sure about? the numbers refer to the pin numbers on the connectors. solder the parts in as shown. Buy the parts and wire it as shown. here is a link to 1.2Mh http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=1.2Mh+induct...

where is a barrel cap used in this? Barrel capacitors are usually reserved for •These capacitors feature a high Q-factor of greater than 10 000 which makes them ideal in operating frequency range from 0.1 MHz up to 30 MHz where high voltages and currents are present. This capacitor type can be used...

As far as the types of caps and chokes, what is the difference between a barrel and ceramic disc. Would any type work and maybe have slight variations in how well they work? I just don't want to cause any damage to my amp or start a fire or something drastic like that.

I think they just got the case mixed, because I'd expect the H in Henry to capitalized due to it being proper, as in a last name.

I sort of assumed that, but I was looking for some backup.

I have been looking on mouser and can't find a passive inductor with a Mega henry unit or anything even close. But there are plenty of 1.2 millihenry models.

I'm trying to build a cheap footswitch for my Leslie 16 to verify that it works correctly before putting a lot more money into restoration. I'm trying to analyze the schematics that I can find to come up with a parts list for capacitors and inductors and such. Particularly, I am trying to determine ...
