The ribbon cable is not on the way of the button. I already fixed this long ago. now, i opened it again, and cleaned with air spray, and other things.. the button is back to life, but for how long? I don't know how to open the front cover, to access the button. Do you know of any video or instruction to do it safely? I already ordered another reuleaux, this one is dying on me, and i love this mod. So i will get another one and this will be a guinea pig. The funny thing is my hanna modz V200 from August last year, is still alive and rocking, even if it is supposed not to be solid. but the battery life is just awful.
