Canadian RCA CTC-39X Chassis Removal
Hello again everyone!
That last thread really helped me out a lot. I've got the power section all sorted and the odd instant on variant control figured out. Since then I've identified some caps that are probably toast and I need to replace my breaker, so I am gearing up to pull the chassis. For the most part it seems easy to remove with most of the wires on connectors. The speaker looks to be a pain with spades on the fragile terminals, but whatever. The main issue I am having is that the bundle of wires going to the speaker panel/door with the front-picture controls are not on a socket/plug and the door they are connected to has no obvious release. Does anyone have any tips on how to release this door without damaging anything? |

IIRC there are 2 1/4" screws holding in the control assy.
Remove knobs then screws & the whole panel slides out. BTW there is a tuner service mounting on the rear of the main chassis. That blank metal arm near the power transformer is part of it. Also has a place to nail down the control assy. Cant remember where but IIRC it involved a U shaped bracket. 73 Zeno ![]() LFOD ! |

Yeah, do what Zeno said and the metal control subchassis should separate from the door.
BTW it tends to clutter the forum and separate important information when you start multiple topics on a single set. Please try to keep everything about this set in a single thread going forward.
