Apx6000 ptt repair

Post by superrecord »

Glitchy ptt on the radio itself. Service mode button test shows intermittent loss of contact while holding down ptt. Really firm pressure makes it a little better.
How hard to fix/replace? Couldn't find part number in service manual. Never opened an apx before but looks much easier than xts.
Regards

Removed case-super easy. There is a membrane switch glued to side of metal frame that provides bubble contacts for all side buttons. It has a ribbon cable which goes through hole in frame and plugs into radio board. The switch strip peels off easily.
there is a number on the front of membrane: 4009368001-A
another number on the ribbon cable:
8400
9369
001-A

How do I get this part?
