Introduction |
The following guide is a step-by-step process on how to disassemble a Marshall MS-2 Micro Amp Case to gain access to the circuit board, and how to properly remove the circuit board.
Your device may have a damaged circuit board if it smells of smoke, or as if something is burning. Another sign of possible circuit board damage is if the volume, tone, and/ or power knobs do not work. For help with common problems, check the [[Marshall MS-2 Troubleshooting|MS-2 Troubleshooting Page]].
Circuit boards are important because they serve as the central source for all electronic components within the device. A Marshall MS-2 Micro Amp can be damaged if the amp is exposed to environmental conditions such as heat, dust, or moisture. It can also be damaged a by power overload or surge, or if the device is dropped.
The following guide shows how to turn the Marshall MS-2 Micro Amp off, how to remove its battery, and how to take off the back panel of the amp to access the circuit board within. Steps 1-4 are also found in the Disassembling Marshall MS-2 Micro Amp Case Disassembly guide also found [guide|19804|here]. Steps 5-7 give a description of how to properly remove the volume, tone, and power knobs, and finally how to remove the circuit board itself. Please use caution not to touch any of the wires. |
