straight razor. Use rubbing alcohol and a cloth to completely remove the adhesive from the chas-
sis surface. With the chassis clean and dry, add a new Interface Pad to the chassis.
3. Place the main circuit board straight down on top of the chassis with the frequency and volume
switches facing down (Figure 7-17).

the O-ring to place it into the retaining groove at the bottom end of the chassis.
6. Check the top corner of the chassis by flipping the O-ring, if the O-ring comes out easily, twist the
O-ring and re-try until the O-ring is held properly by the chassis
