water, contact cleaner or other water based lubricant, ensuring that no
moisture gets on the soldered pins.
8. Slide down the back shell over the toothed inner sleeve onto the plug and
screw down all the way. The backshell may bind on the toothed inner
sleeve, if so moisten the toothed inner sleeve with a minimal amount of
contact cleaner or other water based lubricant, ensure that the top of the
rubber sheath is also lubricated, and that excess does not leak down to the
soldered pins.
9. For Earset Speaker Off only slide the 10mm length of 3.2mm green
heatshrink to within 10mm of the end of the black heatshrink and heat to
shrink.
10. Test the repaired Earset with a known serviceable F1A4 Control Box.
5.2.6.2 Earphone repair
Retermination Procedure:
1. Remove speaker from Earphone Housing by gently prying it out with a small
screwdriver and desolder wiring if necessary. Remove cable grommet for re-
use.
2. Prepare cable as follows:
Note: When removing outer insulation, care should be taken not to nick or
cut the internal wires.
a. Remove 7mm of the outer rubber sheath.
b. Twist outer copper shield back to outer rubber sheath and tin with normal
multi core solder.
c. Remove 5mm of outer teflon coating from each stainless steel inner
conductor. Twist both bared conductors together and tin with solder. If
these wires do not take the solder easily, tin with silver solder.
d. Trim inner conductor so that 3mm protrudes from the insulation, and trim
tinned copper shield to same total length.
3. Solder copper shield to one solder pad on the speaker and the inner
conductors to the other solder pad. Use as little heat as possible as these
solder pads are easily damaged. Polarity is not critical.
4. Refit speaker into Earphone Housing carefully. It should easily ‘click’ in.
Ensure that wiring sits evenly in the Earphone Housing cut out and is not
caught between speaker and Earphone Housing.
5. Push cable into channel around the inside of the Earphone Housing.
6. Slide grommet up the cable and onto the Earphone Housing protrusion.
Test the repaired Earset with a known serviceable F1A4 Control Box.
