TJ10 Power Button needed

Duke_ · 25 Feb 2013 at 22:33

Hi All,

I've owned a Silverstone TJ10 for a couple of years now unfortunately the plastic part attached to the power button broke recently. All I'm looking for is a replacement button - not the switch behind it. If anyone knows anyone who can supply this part I'd be grateful!
I have contacted Silverstone directly but have had no luck!

i changed the buttons a tj07, its easy enough to get some better ones to fit as long as you don't mind soldering.

TJ10 power switch spring.

The "spring" broke on mine. This is the "S" shaped breadboard piece that looks a little bit like an "f" hole on a jazz guitar. It fractured near the screws, and I was able to use oversized washers to clamp the remains and label the switch :

"Gently !".

When that fails I will look at laser cutting, I don't think a 3d printed part will last.

My case is a 2008 model and they may have re-specified since then ?

Silverstone were helpful with a .pdf for disassembly.

Hi I have just mailed you at the above address regarding exactly the same problem which I have with my TJ10 as well.

I have included serial number as well.

I am hoping for a quick solution here given the cost of these top end cases.

Cheers
Sid

Hi Sid,

Silverstone were very helpful and were able to supply a replacement button. While the button was ~£2 the postage meant it was nearer £15 to get to Europe!

They would have covered it under warranty but I couldn't find my proof of purchase.

As for disassembly I recall it was pretty straightforward, remove both side panels then there are several screws holding the front panel to the rest of the chassis.
Good luck!
