I have had 3 model 88’s.
Two have 5 setting knobs. The other has 4.
Top one I gave to a friend of mine.
He lives 1400+ miles away so
I don’t have access to that one.
Middle one I let a friend borrow.
He passed away and I’m not
getting that one back.
I do have the bottom one.
I have compared readings to see how
close one was to the other on several
coils and that is how I know the one I
still have reads low. Most of the coils
I test I don’t know what the readings
should be so it really doesn’t matter.
I would repair it if I could.
Here are some pictures of the inside
of the one I have that reads low. I
appreciate your detailed explanation
of what could possibly be the problem
with mine but my electrical skills only
qualify me to change light bulbs.

A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.
