37-620 Tuner Dishwasher Safe?
#2

If the trimmers are mounted underneath the chassis and all are accounted for and agree with the chassis, then probably there never were any mounted on the variable capacitor, at least on the side shown in your picture.

Basic Schematic here:

As for the dishwasher, dunno, yours doesn't look that bad. I usually just spray everything with Deoxit, brush gently, use a piece of paper to work crud out of between the rotor and stator blades, let dry, and then lube every bushing/bearing with a tiny amount of lithium grease applied with a toothpick, followed by a tiny amount of WD40 also applied with toothpick.Of course an ohmmeter connected between rotor and stator sections will indicate any problems and where they are as you go from full open to full closed .
