[Elecraft] KX3 Issues

[Petr, OK1RP/M0SIS]

Hi all,

some time ago also I reported that the MSG, PRE and ATTN buttons on my KX3
stopped working. I used them as I stored messages into bank 1 and 2 and few
times I used to recall the mems but after some time the buttons stopped to
response. No responding anymore > ON/OFF did not helped. Rest of buttons
tested and works well. 

I solved it with the same procedure which I recommended in this thread...
thanks to Chris, VK5CP.
 
The ribbon cable had to be re-seated. As I have clean pressed air available
with several bars presure and -83deg C dew-point I also cleaned the
connectors on the ribbon cable before installing it back. It helped >
problem solved.

Be sure that the ribbon cable is oriented with the long tab toward the
speaker and all pins are engaged when you will put it back to your radio.

If you have the similar sympthoms then try it first before more complicated
actions. It is easy and can help in few minutes.
