Pulled this out of my church junk box and used it 5 years. Switch was iffy and finally died, thanks to you i'll be able to resurrect it. American price on these new is $400-$500

[@PrincessRoma]

This is my exact problem. Same mic, same switch.. Awesome video!!!

[@netdudeuk]

Great video thanks. Amazed that you found exactly the right switch.

[@aethermonolog]

Thanks for the Video! Had the same problem with mine. I did not have a replacement switch, so I took the switch from the channel selector and used it as "on-off" toggle. Mic works fine now.

[@grantfullen9559]

Good Job. Thanks for posting your repair videos.

[@FortMinor0692]

Thank you. i had the exact same probem! you saved me a lot of money!

[@MrIandrabble]

Great vid - helped me work out why my shure mic stopped working! I opened it up and sprayed some de-oxit contact cleaner on the switch and it seems to be working fine again. If it fails again I'll know to get a replacement switch. Cheers

[@transforminggravity15626]

Awesome videos I really enjoyed Keep up the good work

[@renerd0717]

Thanks a lot. You saved my mike !!

[@pacocalimari]

Great video. You just saved me some money. Thank you

[@djgainsbond]

Just ordered two. Thanks.

[@oleandt77]

Do you have a video of removing the channel switch and installing it to the power position? That would be most helpful. Thanks and great job. (clicking my switch repeatedly does power it on/ mute and off works fine)

[@LewisLastella]

Thanks for the link, i was looking for where to buy the switch

[@davesweetmore1]

great video and very helpful, this problem has put me off buying anything with a push button switch such as on the PG58 again. If your not very good with electronics you've had it though. Mines off to Ebay for sale for parts.

[@utopiabanquethall921]

Thank you for the well done video. I have the same problem, do you know the part number for the whole card? Thank you

[@chrissodin5975]

[@bobkern2]

VERY helpful. Thank you.

[@peggylore3519]

Good video it was not boring. Thank you.

[@craiglogue6395]

I dont suppose anyone knows where I might get a replacement pcb for this mic handset?

[@pastorjorgehernandez6613]

good as I get those pieces I have 2 microphone with the same problem the battery does not fuse 9v .. if possible where I can get .. Thanks for your help. it's H-7 and M-7

[@SchicklerSascha]

Simular problem with the power- mute switch on PG1 Bodypack Transmitter, Other model of switch needed though. Symptom: intermittant problems with power mute switching. I used switch "TASTER 3305B" from Reichelt in Germany. You need to cut a small piece of the switch its plastic shaft to make it work.

[@FernandoMartinLoriente]

Hello, I have a microphone shure sm58, the display puts me dead battery, I've combed, remains the same

[@jaminjimlp]

Good job 👍

[@isfernan]

Friend...I have same microphone but my problem is not about switch buton, I think someone in my church threw it down and stop working. After removing the capsule I found that one of the metal contacts was broken!!! I'm from Costa Rica and I will appreciate if you know if there is a place or internet store where I can find the complete board... Regards Transmitter modelo PG2

[@nelpbueno1524]

I have a repair of tovaste wireless microphone.. sir i have 1question. Can i replace crytal diode frequency tx ad rx

[@TheMikeHuerta]

This video answered all my questions I visited guitar center in Houston texas they had no idea I even called shure directly no help. I wish I could ship you my mic for repair I have no idea how to unsolder and then resolder the switch. Can I ship you my mic 🙂

[@eggrollztv4227]

Can you show how to solder the new button in?

[@udmbr]

Thank you for the video. It is really helpful. Is it possible to know the name of the name of the button so I know what to look for ordering the spare part?

[@feedback-loop]

There is a link in the description.

[@udmbr]

+FeedbackLoop Thank you very much! ☺

[@juancarlosvazquezgonzalez8761]

i did exactly same like you, but the mic, but now its not power off......Can you help me...? excuse me for my english ( power on ok, but power off fails )

[@user-zg3zv8lt2p]

THANK YOU FOR YOUR VIDEO IS IT POSSIBLE TO REPLACE THE 9V WITH 2 AA BATTERIES IN ANY WAY THANKS IN ADVANCE

[@laoluu]

No, you can't do that. This mic needs 9V and two ordinary AAs would only give you 3V. No way that would work with this mic.

[@ronaldobraga3586]

Hello. Do you have the UT2-VE diagram?

[@ninjabluewings]

Love your accent dude 😍

[@barrettabney]

Have you ever cracked open a Shure QLD-D2 handheld unit? I have one that someone dropped on the power switch and snapped the switch tab off the switch. $2 part on Fullcompass, but I can't even get the thing apart. The SLX mics are so simple. This thing is a nightmare.

[@feedback-loop]

Not yet.

[@feedback-loop]

Have you seen my repair of ULX2? Maybe it is similar. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hl7YqWSogNKeiZI

[@barrettabney]

I just figured it out. I had to remove the antenna cap and unscrew a hidden screw...

[@garrycherricks2220]

On that board - The upper right corner there is a white switch - Can you tell me what it does? My is pushed to the far right - What happens if moved to the left??? Thanks

[@feedback-loop]

This is a -10db gain switch

[@djwave1988]

Thank you very much, but do not understand much English could repair my drive smoothly. I congratulate

[@NickWoodMusic]

Thanks for the video.... very useful. :0)

[@phokusinternational9179]

I'm having same problem and I tried the link but seems not showing the switch so I can purchase it. Do you have a product number or part number for it? Can you double check the link & update it? Thanks

[@feedback-loop]

Part number 450-1140-ND. The link works for me.

[@fransrang5970]

Interesting.. now I can fix my Shure if it happen to be failed like this... Thank you

[@DJColinCook]

Thank you for this - Shure wanted to charge me in excess of £100 ($160!) to do this exact repair. They then charged me almost £10 ($16) just for the 23c switch. Its a shame you didnt show how to actually remove and replace the switch as I know little about electronics lol!

[@feedback-loop]

Colin Cook Yeah, I agree. I realized later that in such cases, when the problem happens to be quite simple, I should better use the opportunity to show the details of soldering and such. I hope to improve. Thanks for your feedback.

[@Arek_R.]

It seems like you are complete noob in electronics if you dont know how to replace ordinary SMD switch...

[@ronaldpantin3919]

hey can you tell me the party # for that switch on Digikey?

[@feedback-loop]

It is in the description.

[@ronaldpantin3919]

Thanks found it on full compass

[@ryannguyen5096]

I have the same problem on mine.

[@DH4Hobbies]

I hate those push and hold switches. So lame and confusing for some of the singers who dont understand the powering on concept.

[@Samuel.mulinge]

i still think the old switches were much better and so easy to understand

[@user-cp3so9xc4w]

Меня завуд МУХТАР из ҚАЗАҚСТАНА.У мен тоже такой микрафон SHUR 58.он при замене батарейка не ажыдно трупка перестал работать.как можна свами с званся можна.не каких мастер не можот ремантировать.спасива.

[@zivizivi2328]

those idiots... all that work and they picked a regular crappy micro switch at these price ranges. they should have used good quality switches. gold plated or at least sealed micro switches would save a lot of headache for a lot of devices. from garage door openers to computer mouses to everything they all get corroded in end . these micro switches are the number 1 cause of failure in products even more then failing caps. tip; if you are lazy or desperate enough you can open the switch itself clean it and put it back. if you put a little dab of long lasting synthetic oil inside it will last forever.
