Introduction

The speaker in your printer could wear out and stop working. This guide will show how to replace the speaker if it stops working. This process will require soldering skills because unplugging the speaker from the control board is a very difficult process.

    • Slide the power supply out from the chassis.

    • The power supply is still attached; don't pull too quickly.

  6. KM2GXqsfvFGW3TJ1

    • Remove final cable from power supply.

    What if it isn't the power module what if its the power button it self. Because where the module is connected I see power is on

    Thank you for this concise post. How does one know it is the power supply to change? I hear a humming sound when I plug in (after 30 second button push reset), but no display or lights.

    • There is a hidden screw underneath the model sticker on the front panel.

    • Peel the model sticker off the cover.

    • This will expose the T10 screw securing the panel.

    • Remove the single 12mm-T10 screw securing the front panel to the printer body.

    • Loosen the panel cover from the printer body.

    • There is a ribbon cable connected to the backside of the cover. Disconnect the cable before separating the panel completely.

    It would be good to note that to “loosen the panel cover from the printer body,” the procedure is to:

    1. Take out the screw

    2. Slide the panel cover gently to the right until it stops (1/4 inch)

    3. Slide the panel cover upwards thus lifting it from the holding tabs

    4. Remove panel cover

    Otherwise it makes it seem like steps 2 and 3 are not necessary which could cause someone to use excessive force to remove the panel cover.

    • At this point you must cut and solder on your new speaker.
