TION: Installation of screws that are longer than the origi-
nals may damage the LCD Board, flex circuits or the
threads.
To remove the Control Board, remove the Torx screw
(E) in the lower left-hand corner that supplies battery power
to the board. An earlier Front Cover Assembly has an addi-
tional screw located just below connectors J1/P1 (EE). Lift
the board and carefully unplug Speaker Flex plug P3 from
J3 on the Control Board. Avoid bending this or any other
flex circuits at sharp angles. The Control Board may now be
removed. Note the battery power and ground connections at
the bottom of the board where the screws have been re-
moved.

then remove the six (6) Torx screws that secure the die-cast
shield. Remove the die-cast shield by lifting the top end first
and sliding it towards the top of the radio. The internal
speaker, microphone, Keypad and UDC Flex circuits are
now partially accessible. See Figure 9.
