Not a wind up.
What I had was an old Robbe one in a frigate which died & 2 new Action ones sitting in my parts box. One marked P14A which matches the layout on the Action website for a P14, the other is marked P14 and has the connection boxes grouped together.
I tried the P14A and it now has replaced the Robbe in my frigate. The P14, after you told me which was positive & negative, was going into another boat but, when hooked up, doesn’t seem to work. To hook it up, I simply replaced the working P14A in the model with the P14. That way, I knew for a fact that both the speaker and switch worked.
With the P14A in the boat, I have sound, replace it with the P14 and I have silence.
I can’t solder anything to save my life, so suggesting I replace items is good advice but won’t happen.
