Hi

Ive just picked up a S/H MPC X and it has a few buttons that dont respond as they should and take a few presses to get them to work

So im looking to strip it down and clean it and try and fix the button problems

Is there a teardown tutorial Video etc out there that someone could point me too as ive looked all over the web but havent found one as yet or has anyone taken one apart and how easy was it?

If some one knows of any and could send me a link that would be great

Thanks

Take your time with the Ribbon cables. Some of them are short. Disengage them with the Bottom Half halfway open. The Brown LCD cable is kinda tricky. Make mental note of how they connect.

No matter what you break a part, always document the steps you take. These days it's easy with smartphones..
