Default Etrac Control Box

BEFORE I GET 20 POST ON WARRANTY, I KNOW AND IT IS A MOOT POINT.

Anyone know how or if the control box can be removed from the Etrac. I have a pinched battery wire in the handle. To repair it correctly I need to take the handle apart. To take the handle all the way apart the control box needs to be removed. I have everything ready to go (connectors removed from the board etc...) just cant get the box off. I must either be missing something or its glued.

Thanks for all the help in advanced.


Frank

You can't just say you figured it out. Inquiring minds want to know HOW.
