LT Button Sticking

[chrisjw]

Before I force it, does the top knurl unscrew on the LT?...The button is sticking & I don't want to force a screw driver under the button itself......

No it's press fitted...Remove the battery and spray a liberal amount of electrical contact cleaner on the switch and let it dry..

Should sort it before you start putting sharp objects where they have no reason to be..

I think... when I tried to get to the switch in my LT, it's pretty well impossible to get to, without destroying the whole thing.

I could be wrong, but that's what I remember.

As Macca says, the top bit is press fitted, but you can take it off, but never get it back the same without glue.

got mine back on, without any problems You just have to be careful when removing it, and use a really thin, sharp blade, working your way around, very slowly, until there is a small gap, then you can use something a bit bigger and quicker. Just presses back on.

But if you can do the work you need to do from the battery end, it makes no sense to remove it anyway.
