The rubber covering the On?Off button was destroyed after years. The PCB was revealed making the circuit vulnerable to dust and moisture and the button difficult to locate.

I cut a transparency slide oval part to avoid the glue going all over and create a spring like behavior and also designed and 3D printed a small pin to push the button. Then i covered the assembly with mouldable glue (like sugru) to reform the rubber cover. All went well and the button is working fine
