I finally got around to trying my second PCB in my McE2S. Rather, I got around to trying to try it.
As I understand the disassembly instructions (courtesy of Chop from another thread):
Very easy with a 3/32 hex wrench. All you need to do is pop the switch module out of the tail cap and then use the hex wrench to unscrew the two halves of the module. Just take note of the orientation of the PCB and the PCB spring. Replace the PCB and replace the screw. Pop the module back into the tail cap and you're off.
It all works until the "unscrew the two halves of the module" part. Mine won't budge. I have a long T-handle hex wrench, so I'm getting plenty of torque. I even tried gently gripping the bottom half of the module in a pair of pliers.
Any suggestions on how to get take this thing apart?
Thanks, and happy holidays to all!
