Thomas1987 Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Hi all, Long shot but I've got a couple of damaged CDJ's where the cue button has been hammered. Looking at it, I *should* be able to just replace the microswitch, rather than that whole board - quite happy soldering one on. But I have no idea if its a custom pioneer part, or available from certain electrical stores. Anyone got any advice? Just begrudge paying pioneer £60 for a replacement board for a £2 component. Guess at least if I get one board I can use the dead boards switches as spares but galling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mutley Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Can you get a picture? Is it a standard microswitch, miniature microswitch, tactile switch...? CPC will probably stock it, RS almost certainly will, and I'd bet £20 on Mouser having one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was ranting at one of the crew about how much pioneer charge for a board when its only one component and what a rip off life is etc, and he suggested Ebay (which I had not thought of!) .... Low and behold, there we are! £2 each + 70p delivery! Ordered a dozen in case I ###### up the soldering - if all is successful, will post the link to the store selling them (UK based) for future people who may find this thread.

DrV Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Farnell/Newark 1632120 fits nicely into a CDJs. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frisco Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Unfortunately they tend to go quite often as, in my experience, DJs find that a simple tap on the button just won't do. It needs a vigorous slap! Use as little solder as possible. I find I can replace the microswitch about 3 times before it's bu99ered (microswitch still "clicks" but doesn't respond). At this point you can solder a bit of wire on the back of the board off the Cue, and you should probably order a new board for when that gives up...
