Title: Tek TDS 540a
Post by: lucatz on October 27, 2020, 02:57:37 pm

Hi All,

Looking for buttons around CRT for a used one I bought, mine is missing one button lower right. The Tek code is 214-4287-00 or 214-4287-01. Found some on ebay for a 100USD. If anyone has any other sources or parts lying around I would be willing to buy.
Thank You
Luca

Would need to 3d print the mold and then try. Goes without being said that it would require a conductive pad in the aswell...

Wondering if it would work...
Tks
