Spyder 3 cable problem

2013-01-21 by Hassan El-Zayyat

My Spyder3 has developed an intermittent fault where the cable enters the casing. I have to wiggle it just right to get it recognized.
I am way past worrying about the warranty, but as I am several thousand miles from the nearest Datacolor service center, I was wondering if it is at all user-serviceable.
Is there a magic trick to disassembling the Spyder3 so I can fix the cable?
With the Spyder hanging from the cable it’s a pain getting it to stay connected.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Hassan
