DDCecil Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 (edited) Is there an easy way to do it? I'm trying to remove 2 buttons where the white plastic underneath has been misshapen and replace them with buttons from a non-working console. If someone could give me step by step instructions (so I don't screw up), I'd appreciate it! Edited January 11, 2017 by DDCecil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone could give me step by step instructions (so I don't screw up), I'd appreciate it! You mean like the power button and the other main buttons? If I remember correctly you just take the cover off and there is a ear tab on each side of the button that you release and then slide the button out.

DDCecil Posted January 11, 2017 Author Share Posted January 11, 2017 (edited) I can get the buttons out almost halfway releasing the tabs from below, but the button just stops, and I'm not sure if it has to do with the spring inside or what. EDIT: I tried the non-working system, and they came out just fine! I'm not sure why I'm having such a hard time with the other shell!

It probably just needs a little motivation... once you push the tabs in, you may need to take a small screwdriver to push it the rest of the way out.

DDCecil Posted January 11, 2017 Author Share Posted January 11, 2017 Finally got them out and replaced them. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
