One of the Tray sensor pins on my Formlabs 2 is broken.  
Is there any manual to replace this piece?  
Has someone documented doing this before?

I already know the piece can be acquired at mouser or Digikey, and the part number is 70AAJ-3-M0

You can check some pictures of the broken piece on the bottom or at this link:

I really appreciate any help you can provide.

Hi Axis,

Did you end up finding any good info/guides on how to replace this component? I’ve got the same issue.

Thanks

Hi @Jake_s ,

If you have an issue where the fingers are just bent or misaligned, you might be able to [adjust them back into place.](https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-Rpx1ySV3QVMTZ3MXNKV0pJY1k/view?resourcekey=0-GwTudz8INMbaWKE3o1rskg) If they are broken off, then you would likely need a new printer; [please reach out to our Support Team](https://support.formlabs.com/s/contact-support?language=en_US) to provide photos and request further assistance if needed.

Try asking from an electronics repair shop (TVs, car audio etc), they deal with such things all day long.
