• If you’re replacing the internal daughter cable, unplug it from the main PCB by gently pulling and set aside.

Replacing the USB-C PCB

Reassembling the Numpad

2. Gently plug the internal daughter cable into the USB-C PCB.
• If replacing the internal daughter cable, plug the other end into the main PCB.

Note: Make sure the cable is properly routed through its canal in the bottom casing, and ensure that both ends are connected before closing up your GMMK Numpad.

3. Replace the top frame.

4. Re-install the bottom case screws, being sure not to overtighten to avoid stripping.
