Also, Dmon - if you're breaking wires everytime you open up a tank, you're being too rough or pulling the halves too far apart before detaching the plugs (turret loom and antenna lead).
Believe me, I am not "heavy handed". Although I have not had the same problem with the Pershing, every time i went into the Panther I got broken wires sometime during the time the tank was open. Of course, it was during the time I was fitting the laser sight inside the turret, so I had to totally disassemble and pull thru all the electronics and motor assemblies. I have had one wire break on the Pershing- the antenna wire was poorly soldered to the board and came off first time I opened it up. But nothing since.....
