Disassembly

This section gives detailed procedures for disassembling and
reassembling the radio. Refer to the diagrams that accompany the text,
the exploded view diagrams and parts lists located in the back of this
manual, and the ASTRO Digital XTS 3000 Basic Service Manual,
Motorola publication 68P81083C85. Items in parentheses ( ) refer to
item numbers in the exploded view.
1. Turn off the radio by rotating the on/off/volume control fully
counterclockwise until you hear a click.
2. Referring to the Basic Service Manual (68P81083C85), Chapter 6,
remove the universal connector cover or any accessory connected
to the radio, the antenna, and the battery.
NOTE: It is not necessary to remove the volume knob (6)
and insert (7) or frequency knob (13) and insert
(11) to service the main chassis. However, if any
top control is suspected, then the knobs and
inserts should be removed prior to removing the
chassis from the front cover. Refer to Chapter 6 in
the Basic Service Manual.
3. With the back of the radio facing
upward, insert the 6680334E07
special tool at the bottom of the
radio between the housing
assembly (2) and the two tabs on
the casting assembly (54). Gently
pry upward to free the housing
assembly from the casting. Making
sure that the antenna bushing has
cleared the hole in the control top,
carefully lift the casting assembly
clear of the housing assembly.
4. While holding the casting assembly (54) in one hand and the
housing assembly (2) in the other, unplug the 41-pin connector
on the controls flex assembly (18) from the controller board (44).
NOTE: This can easily be done using the thumb of the
hand holding the housing assembly.
Put the housing assembly aside.
