Goldbug 2 repairs

[undersc0re]

I was just wondering if anyone has some sort of instructions on removing the circuit board from the goldbug 2 box, It is the gold bug 2 with gold metal shaft and says gold bug 2 on the side, I am thinking I need to resolder or check the pot to circuit board solder joints on the threshhold adjustment knob...I would just remove everything trying to take it apart but I figured maybe someone on here has done it and has some sort of disassembly instructions I could use! I also have to replace the speaker which is not working. Thanks! I guess if no one has anything I could post something that would help later, if I don't destroy anything lol.

On my original GB, remove the large nut holding the coil connector and the entire guts with face plate should pop out the front by pushing in on the connector.

That worked great, thanks, new speaker works great now too. Had to pry the speaker cover off to replace that! Now if I can just figure out why my 6 inch coil I just bought off ebay goes off on every little hole and dip in the ground and almost anything else lol, maybe its just a wee bit sensitive, gonna switch back to the 10 inch and rule out the "new" coil.

Thanks for the tip!
