Hi there, no problem. Hope this works without photos?
You will need a spudger or a guitar pick, a TX7 screwdriver, TX10 if you
want to get to the speakers, and a PH1 (Phillips) if you want to access
the PCB's front side
- the speaker grille is held by four plastic noses, one in each
corner, which plug into the front
- insert the spudger's edge between the fabric and the surrounding
edge in any of the three sides of the speaker grille that do not go
towards the display
- near the edge, use the spudger to loosen the plug connection
carefully. If need be, just lever it out a bit, not entirely, and
continue with the next corner, doing multiple rounds until the grille
is free
- you will see two silver TX7 screws in the middle of the front panel
which hold down the clear plastic of the right half. Loosen both
- once the screws are out, push the right front panel half about 1-2
millimeters to the left. Subtle force is required here. You should see
the headphone connector move in. It is what holds the assembly. Once
the front panel is far enough to the left, you will be able to pull it
out. You will find two cables attached, one going to the speaker (4
wires) and one towards the power jack (2 wires)
- if you need to go any further from here, e.g. separate the PCB from
the case completely, unplug both connectors
- *for full PCB access: *the PCB is bolted to the front panel with 8
or 9 smaller PH1 screws. If you undo all of them, and pull the knobs
of the main rotary knob and the volume knob, the PCB should be free by
now. Take care as the buttons, especially the ones for the presets
1..6 will easily fall out of the front panel, and so do the
rubber/carbon coated mattes between the PCB and the buttons. Be sure
not to lose anything, and remember how everything was placed so you
can properly reassemble later
- *in case you need to access the speakers*, you will find 6 TX10
screws deep down in the black plastic insert of the front panel, four
in each corner, and two more in the top and bottom center. Undo these
so you can pull the insert out and access the speakers which are
mounted to it
That should do it. If you have any problems, please post them here with
photos describing the issue(s).
Good luck!
PN me if your Boom / Classic / Transporter display has issues!
