Hi all, I have a AWA pressmatic radio (model number 938B) and the wiring input plug has all broken.
I'm chasing a picture of the schematics for this radio if anyone can help.

Thanks

Mal,

I've got a circuit diagram for the AWA 938, but tomorrow I'm going away with work for a couple of weeks.

Instead, go to kevinchant.com and follow the link "Australian Car Radio Circuits" then AWA, then download the file called 938.pdf

Remember: if your Holden's not leaking oil, it doesn't have any.

Rob I tried that site but couldn't find anything for the AWA 938B

 Hi  Mal. If all else fails, then give the following a call.   Nostalgic  Wireless, 63 Silverdale Rd, EAGLEMONT Vic. They have rebuilt a number of car radios for me.... even converted valve to transistor, as well as including AM/FM/IPOD connectivity, [all in the original case].  I found them good to deal with. Naturally, if you are on a "DIY" journey, then this might be your "plan B".  Regards Kevin.

Mal,

The AWA 938 pushbutton radio came in two versions: 938A, which is a "universal" type supplied with a 5" x 7" speaker; and the 938B, which is intended for Holdens, and is supplied with a 6" x 9" speaker.  The two model numbers are identical electrically.

In short: download the file 938.pdf from Kevin Chant's website.  It's the correct one for your 938B.
