[TowerTalk] OR2800DC rotor reed switch replacement

[Eric Dobrowansky K2WD]

Good afternoon, 



I recently suffered a lightning strike to an antenna on my tower, and my OR2800 now indicates 16 ohms on the two motor wires (pins 1 &2), which looks normal. However the reed switch is showing a continuous short across pins 5&6 even while getting the rotor turn ever so slightly before the controller faults to E1. 



How difficult is it to replace the reed switch. Obviously I'm guessing the rotor needs to come out of the tower. But is it easy enough to disassemble the OR2800 and get to the reed switch? Also, is it available from places like Mouser or Digi-Key, or is it a custom part that will require me to order it from M2?  



Any web pages showing the inside? 



Thanks
