lichtgilphead Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 To clarify though, if i can get the earth pin out at step 2 then i can just screw the socket face back in, turn on the mains and im fine? Yeah, should be OK, Try turning it on and off, then plug a light in to check as I suggest above. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would buy a new socket just to be on the safe side,They are only a couple of quid after all.Also even i can change a socket and DIY SOS was made after my attempts at it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lichtgilphead Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Thats great, cheers mate. Well Im going to have to do that anyway, its more that the pin from the old plug is stuck in the wall socket so even if i did get a new one i wouldnt be able to plug it in. Just buy a new plug for the old radio! Ask for instructions if you need them - it's easy to rewire a plug 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurt Cobain was offered Lead Belly's guitar for $50,000 around the time of the Unplugged set(he mentions it during it) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 (edited) Clickskiy That has to be the most expensive musical instrument ever? Not even close. A violin was on sale last year for $18 million. I'm not sure if it sold but $30,000 seems like it wouldn't be near the top of the list. In fact a John Lennon guitar sold for over $200,000 a few years ago. Edited September 19, 2011 by yoda 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lichtgilphead Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Yeah i was talking rubbish there tbh. Its not even the radio plug that broke. Its an adaptor to connect it to the mains that i bought for about £3.50 at tesco. Might invest in a sturdier model this time. Give me some credit though, i know i've come across as a bit of a muppet so far, but i know how to rewire a plug! Sorry - wasn't intending to seem patronising. However, I would have thought that my grandad would have known how to wire a plug. It was only after inheriting some of his power tools after his death (non-electrical!!!!) that I found out that he used to wrap the fuses in plugs with silver paper to "protect" said fuses. I was at my grandmothers house with a screwdriver and a varied selection of fuses approximately 10 minutes later....... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
