Separate the KX3 top and bottom covers. Set the bottom cover on its feet and locate the flex cable that will

join the RF board to the CP board (see Figure 52).

Figure 52. Flex Cable.

Plug the flex cable into P2 on the CP board as shown in Figure 53. Be sure it is oriented with the long tab

on the cable toward the speaker as shown.

Figure 53. Plugging the Flex Cable into the CP Board.

Set the top cover assembly next to the bottom cover and connect the flex cable and battery cable as shown

in Figure 54. Ensure the speaker cable is still routed over the speaker as shown so it won’t be trapped between
the battery holders and the CP board when the cover is closed.
