Tools and Materials Needed
1. 107 TLC Mk3 Faceplate with Electronics (#113027)
2. Phillips or Robertson Screwdriver
3. Wire Cutters
4. Pliers
Instructions
1. Place the reel on a flat workbench with the faceplate up.
Make sure the TLC Meter is turned off. Remove the battery.
2. Undo the three screws from the faceplate, and slowly
remove it from the reel.
3. If this is an Mk2 TLC Meter, disconnect the Molex connector
that connects the circuit board to the tape. If this is an Mk3
TLC Meter, press down on the white terminals of the pushrelease fittings on the circuit board and pull out to remove
the tape leads.

4. Connect the tape to the new faceplate circuit board assembly:
a) If this is a Mk3 TLC Meter, press down on the white
terminals on the circuit board and insert the tape leads.
Release the terminals and the leads should be secured.
The lead on the bottom of the tape (numbers facing up)
is inserted into the terminal labelled BOT on the circuit
board, and the top lead into the terminal labelled TOP.
b) If this is an Mk2 TLC Meter, with a Molex connector
on the tape leads, remove the Molex connector by
pushing out the two pins. Cut each pin in half (see
image below for correct location). Use pliers to flatten
the remainder of the pins against the tape lead, so it fits
easily into the terminals on the circuit board. Connect
each tape lead to the new circuit board assembly, as
described above in step a.
