I just looked at a schematic, and there's fusible resistor, some
buffer resistors and that's about it between the jack and the uPD
chip. Probably an easy fix. I'd guess look right at the jack before
it connect to the CPU board.
PS, "reply all" works for me.

Thanks for that info Dennis - I'll give it a try.
I hardly ever even
switch my S550 on these days but it certainly would be nice to fix it.

PS
I wish this email group would have an auto-reply like yahoogroups. I
always have to remember to paste in the sgroup <sgroup(a)sgroup.ca>
address, otherwise the mail just replies to the poster.

I thought just one fusible resistor fails if you do this. Maybe

come with one). Where can one get a mouse for these units nowadays?
And can it be used for the S760 as well?
