Escort Passport Max2 Speaker Replacement

Difficulty

Moderate

Steps

Time Required

20 minutes

Introduction

If you no longer hear sound from your Escort Passport Max2, and none of the troubleshooting guides seem to help, it may be that your Passport Max2's speaker is damaged. This guide will show you how to replace it.

Tools

Step 1

Inser the flat end of a spudger into one of the two notches and pry off the case.

Step 2

Slide the spudger around the perimeter of the radar housing until the case separates.

Step 3

Repeat these steps to remove the other side.

Step 4

Remove the four 9mm Phillips #1 screws from the bottom of the radar.
Remove the bottom case.

Step 5

Gently spread apart the thin silver frame that wraps around the device and remove the dark purple lens.
The silver frame can easily pop off of the device now that the bottom metal case has been removed. Don't worry if it comes off all the way. It can easily be put back in it's place.

Step 6

Use the plastic opening tool to unplug the white connector from the motherboard.
Remove the motherboard.

Step 7

Simultaneously, press on the small tab with the flat end of the metal spudger and lift the lid of the box.
The speaker part should come up as well when you lift the lid of the box.

Step 8

The speaker will easily separate from the lid.
Be careful of the red and black cord, which is threaded through one part of the lid. When replacing the speakers be sure to gently pull the cord through this hole to fully release the speaker part.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

Do you have a link to the replacement speaker part

I found the speaker on Amazon. It’s called “uxcell 2W 8 Ohm DIY Speaker Replacement Loudspeaker 20mmx40mm 2pcs”. I just put it in yesterday and it works like a charm! The only note is that you will need to remove the leads from the old, faulty speaker and solder them at the 2 contact points on the new speaker. This is MUCH easier than it sounds and takes only seconds. Either you will need a soldering gun (any cheap one will do) or have someone do it. This is the only part that was new to me. This may be of value to include in the above instructions, but they are otherwise excellent.
