Lorex LHV210800 Button Panel Replacement

Introduction

The button panel is what transfers button inputs to the motherboard and controls the system directly without use of a controller. These buttons may be stuck and worn after lots of use, so the removal of the board may be necessary. The board may also need replacing due to damage.
