1. When checking the switch make sure your volume reg is at max position or you will see the short where there is none.
2. You have to take off the handle assembly, the hub ring holding the dial and get to the point where you can see the contact ring that goes around the outer part of the shaft. The shaft should be wrapped in some insulating material. The ring should not be connected to the shaft at this point. The horizontal part (the contact that goes into the push-handle assembly) should be free at this point. If the copnnection exist your insulating wrap is bad probably.
3. If it is good then see if the short occurs when you put the handle assembloy back. This requires some finess but I eventually figured how to do that easily and so will you - it becomes obvious when you assemble the handle back.
All in all, there is nothing there except one spring contact and the insulation. You ahve to trace where it breaks.
