Hi everyone,
I ordered a replacement case for my prophet and of course had to break something and have some extra parts after I thought I had finished.

Where do the small metal and plastic parts go, and do you think it's possible to solder the lead back to the speaker?

Thanks, Robert

the small metal clip goes on the sides, after u remove the plastic middle, u can see them on the inside, there's 6 in total if i remember corectly.

plastic bit is i think, for the stylus 'holder' if u understand me. look where the stylus goes on the inside.

i guess u can solder, is that the new speaker?

hope that helps

wanwarlock, thanks for your reply.
I think this prophet had already been tinkered with as there is no evidence of the metal clips.

I have tried to solder the leads back to the speaker, but I think I'll need a replacement.

As for the plastic bit, the stylus of course fits through the hole, but there is no groove or hole it would snap into. The only indication of its former place is the fact that it's made of the same transparent violet material as the cover of the IR port.

Any new thoughts?

Thanks, Robert

use the service manual from this thread:

the black bit according to it is actually the head phone jack holder! hmmmmm

those small clips are so flimsy, maybe you've actually lost em? is yours bought new or 2nd hand. anyway, i guess those clips don't matter cos i think i lost 1 or 2 of them & my prophet is working fine.
