Installing a 5k Vol. Pot centipede with JAMMA adaptor making a speaker hum
OK, so I have my centipede up and running, and It's wired JAMMA using a centipede to JAMMA adaptor, (I see on the adaptor it has a vol. control) All of the controls are working properly / buttons.. and also I have sound but my speaker is making a terribly loud humming / buzzing noise. I read somewhere that I can install a 5k vol. pot. to resolve this issue ?
would this be sufficient ? http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2062356
If It's sufficient, what exactly do I need to do to wire it up correctly, I have the speaker wires coming from the JAMMA harness, and it's currently connected directly to the speaker wires that go to the speaker. I'm guessing one of the metal tabs is for ground on the 5k pot and one is for Left / Right Audio, but I'm still confused about installing it properly. Any help would be appreciated.
