RBJ (Rotary Base Joint) Repaired
The RBJ.... provides an Electrical link between the body of the vehicle and the rotatable Turret. On mine the one of the connectors on the base of the unit had corroded badly due to being under water for a few years.
Luckily, when I removed the cover, the interior of the unit looked fine. I have replaced the 4 pin socket ( charging supply to the Turret Batteries )
Continuity of all the connections checked and confirmed .... OK !!
Note: the photos show the RBJ - Upside Down.
