Could this be taken apart, to change which side of the cord you pull out or does it look to difficult? Could someone take some up close pictures? Thks

The answer is no. There is a brush setup inside the reel that powers it as the reel turns.

I haven't tried what you've tried-taking it apart. I just clean it with water, but I haven't taken it apart. At least yours makes a noise! It seems to me like the sound gets weaker and weaker until the thing stops working. I was surprised mine actually turned on today on the first attempt.

is anyone getting the link for repair? i had my swivel cord tightened and haven't had a problem since, but would like the repair link if anyone is getting it.

Remove? No. But the cord should probably be disconnected. The cover has a short (3 inch?) rat-tail that connects to power. The cover is difficult to get on, although no more so than any other cover I've used. I just would not want to remove and reinstall daily. :-)

does anyone know where the spring goes when opening the cord section? My cord got stuck and had to open the comparment and the spring fell out.

It's 2 pieces stuck together. It comes apart very slightly when I pull on both sides. So it looks like you could get them apart but you might break them trying. Good luck!

It doesn't look like it because the cord is attached. Unless you can figure out how to detach it without ruining the speaker.

The ends they used are those metal spirals - if you want to take them off, you could either use large/strong scissors to cut the cord right before it, or use pliers to pull it open, since it's basically held down by one strong metal wire. :)

You have to take it apart. Unbolt it from the bottom. Fairly labor-intensive, but it works.

Wondering if you are still looking for an answer. I just asked my son, who knows more about it than I, however, he is not sure what you are referring to. The way he understands is that you are wondering if you can take apart the camera and that it still would work. He says if this is the case, you would need to be careful with the cord that goes to the screen.

I took a small Jewlers flat head screw driver and slid the "shaft" over to the side and it pops right out. Sorry, i can't remember which side it was that i did it from(right or left). it is very easy so don't do anything that is too hard because it shouldn't hard and you'll wind up breaking something. then on the side of the part of the batt grip that goes up into the camera there is a place to store the lid... hope that helps

I have not taken it apart but just unplug it and clean it with a powerful hand-held vacuum. I think you can take it apart, but I have osteoarthritis and it would be difficult for me.

I couldn't figure out how to remove the old cable, so I just removed the new one and stuck the old cable to the new screen. Just peel it off like a sticker. I have removed it a few times since then. It doesn't seem to be very picky.

Read the manual. It's very simple. I've had mine off and on many many times. I cannot understand why everyone is making this so difficult. Maybe there is a YouTube video on it. And I wouldn't doubt there is. Check it out. I didn't have to resort to that because I can read the English language.

You will have to pull at the cord wrap area (the plastic piece along the cord, the egg shaped thing) one side retracts and one side pulls it out farther. Good luck.

It has been a couple years since I purchased my units but I believe the cord comes from the side. I am not near my workshop now to verify. This is consistent with the photo. In any case I would go by the photo as a guide. Products sometimes change over time and may be manufactured differently today.

It's very hard to take it off, I had one before, it was like this one, I just took it off to change it for this new one. if you wanna change it for a new one, you can pull it hard. You may wanna do it just if you don't wanna it anymore or you wanna change it, because it might break on the corners. Good luck!!
