Zoom H6 Handy Recorder Power Switch Replacement

Schwierigkeitsgrad

Schritte

Zeitaufwand

15 - 20 Minuten

Einleitung

The power switch is located on the bottom, left side of the device. Connected to the switch is its circuit. When the switch doesn't work, it means that the circuit will have to be replaced. This will require the button board, as well as the motherboard, to be removed in order to reach the circuit.

Werkzeuge

Schritt 1

Place device face up and pry off the four knobs using the flat end of the plastic opening tool.
You may need to stabilize the device with the other hand.

Schritt 2

With device facedown, lift the four rubber feet from the device using tweezers or fingernails.

Schritt 3

With device still facedown, unscrew six (PH #1), 9mm screws; two located in center of back side of device right above the battery cover, and four under the rubber feet.
An electronics screwdriver small enough to fit in hole (4mm diameter), but long enough to reach the screws (at least 2cm) will be required to unscrew the screws.

Schritt 4

With the bottom of the device on a table, lift the top of the device and gently place it aside.

Does anyone know where to buy replacement parts?

Schritt 5

Unscrew three (PH #1), 7mm screws from the display backing and gently flip over.

The red highlight circle for the top screw in the first picture of step 5 is in the wrong place. The screw is actually on the right side, just slightly above the bottom left one. The top screw is shown still attached in the second and third picture of the series.
