Introduction
Opening the scale, cleaning, checking and repairing switches
What you need
-
-
Remove the two Phillips screws (red) under the display area.
-
Release the four clips (green) on the sides (push to the side with a flat-blade screwdriver)
-
Then lift off the cover with the contacts for measuring the body fat
-
-
-
If only the kick buttons are involved, this step will not be necessary.
-
Remove the two screws holding the circuit board (yellow). The circuit board can now be lifted off.
-
Remove the 6 screws (green) holding the display and simply lift off the display.
-
The contacts can now be cleaned
-
The kick switch, which turns the display on, is located on the blue cable
-
-
-
-
Unhook the two springs from the hooks
-
The metal cover can now be lifted off
-
-
-
Check the two kick switches connected to the blue cable (blue boxes), e.g. by simply short-circuiting the connection on the circuit board (red arrow) (with the battery connected). If the display then shows something, the problem has been found.
-
In my case, I had to bent the two contact lugs a little (one broke off - but the other seems to be sufficient)
