Veeery useful , thank you !
Even with the Jimmy I can't seem to get the back panel off... a video would be helpful :)
Got the back panel off finally but my connector board won't come out.
Ok... finally got the connector board out. It took a bit of gentle prying using a very small thin screw driver bit on each side of the connector board. Once I had the right side popped up a bit I was able to push on the input output jacks from the outside to get clearance. Removing the connector board and putting it back in resolved the power switch issues I was experiencing. No new connector board needed! :)
Im so glad I was reading these comments. I had an OP1 with failing power as well, every bit more tougher touch would turn it off and on, or sometimes would have problems starting up.
I took it apart to see if something was bothering, and taking off the white power switch actually solved it haha.
Good I didnt order it yet!
