ATT CL4940 Internal Microphone Replacement

Introduction

Go to step 1 ↓

If you are unable to hear anything during hands free calling, the internal speaker may need to be replaced. This guide will teach you how to disassemble your AT&T CL4940 corded answering system, and how to replace the speaker used for hands free calling. This is a fairly simple process, and it can be accomplished with minimal technical expertise.

      • Starting from the bottom of the device, (using a metal spudger) separate the top (white) plastic piece from the bottom (gray) plastic piece.

      • Work your way across the bottom of the device, then to each side, and finally to the top.

      • There are brackets every few inches along the edge of the device. These may be difficult to pull apart.

      • The top and bottom pieces should separate, and the internals of the device will now be accessible.

I'd rather install a new microphone instead of just reinstalling the old one.

Is there a link to where a new microphone can be purchased?
