half broken data wheel

i got an MPC2000XL with a data wheel that does not make the "click" while turning it and also does not work unless i sort of pull it a bit and then turn it. i want to fix it and i found a thread here talking about how to replace the defected part, but i did not find where from i can order the new part to replace the broken one.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions

I have never heard of this problem but I'd suggest taking it apart and figuring out why it doesnt work. You may not need a new part. And if you do, you'll at least know which part it is that you need.

good Luck man......

hopefully someone here can give you a better answer

AGGGhhhh...it was a trick question!

He GOT me!

i have a similar problem.
someone sat on my mpc and now the data wheel is without function.
any idea how much a data wheel can cost?
should i let a professional store do the repairing or is it no big deal?
as far as i can see, i will have do remove the whole main board to change the wheel and this seems a little bit risky to me.
any experiences?
thanks for any info

i got a friend that has a mpc2000xl and his dog grabbed the cord of the mpc and pulled it off his desk and broke the jog wheel from working on it , now he has to take a pair of pliers and pull and turn at the same time to get a beat loaded up and his cursor buttons is tore up too from pressing them too much , i swear i hate bring beats over his house without my mpc cause i cant take it anymore!,,pulling on pliers and stuff , i get cramps in my hands just doing it , i tell him to get a new mpc2000xl or atleast a used one but he says his is just fine like it is , i look at him like he is the strangest person on earth , but if i win the lottery or get some big money from somewhere , i'll just buy me a new one and give him my old one, ....man!! if you want that mpc fixed best thing to do is take it to a shop where they work on electronics or studio equipment

I would have sent that dog to the pound

oh the police came and got all 10-12 of them

I am having this same problem with the wheel. Im out in the sticks and none of the electronic stores even know what mpc 2000 is let alone fixing the wheel.

it was the rotary button in my case, repair did cost me 40 euro
