off switch is flaky. After a period of not being reliable, it now won't turn on. I've opened up the plastic and I can get the inside capsule loose, but it won't slide out... it's blocked by plastic cylinder that carries the light. How to remove it? Or take off the plate that has the PGX2 label on it so I can access the switch mechanism? I've found a source for the Shure 65A8533 Replacement Switch Activator for PGX Wireless... once inside, is that all I'll need to fix the problem? Thanks

Pop off the bezel that surrounds the switch actuator. Once you do that, the switch actuator will fall our in your hands. Remove the C-clip at the top of the microphone and the circuit board can be slid out the top.
The actuator moves the actual switch. So, if you are having problems with the actual switch, then you will need to replace it. Replacement parts can be ordered from Shure Parts at 800-516-2525.
It might cost less and be easier to simply send the microphone to Shure for repairs.
