hi mates any idea or solution how to fix a reset button of a ccr1009-7g-1c-1s+ due to too much pressing by a friend of mine…
now the router is in bootloop mode…, tried using via Console…it boot loops can access the menu to choose options to netinstall
i tried to check if the board has desame as 1016 or 1036 that can be hard reset via routerboard …but i dont see these on 10009 versions…
any ideas? thanks 
t
Is the device the same as this?

thanks for the respond…its not desame these one is a 1009-7g-1c-1s+…
the 1009-8g-1s-1s+ these are bit older… but base on cheking on the board there kinda identical…
is it possible to use those method on 1009-8g-1s-1s+?
Yes, of course, these kind of buttons are common to many PCB’s, not only Mikrotik’s ones, you can remove the (failed) button and then use some tweezers to make contact to reset, then finding a replacement button and re-solder it should be not difficult (if needed).
Those are NO (normally open) contacts, so, unless it is stuck pressed it might be not the reason for the bootloop, but to be sure removing/desoldering it (or what remains of it) is anyway a good idea.
thanks il handle the bootloop issue…just for the reset button only…i
a sample image below can i try these on 1009? will it work?
If it doesn’t melt the tweezers it’ll probably be fine.
Usually curved (insulated but that is not really needed) tweezers like these:

are used, and from the other side (i.e. with the hand not over the PCB) but yes that will work just fine.
well try it tonight im guessing it will function again …thanks for the help
