Well, I have both, but this is a tm2 that's damaged. Is there an illustrated guide anywhere? Cos that would alleviate some of my angst about it all.
I understand the process to be this;
- Take the bottom long screw out,
- Take the bottom plate off,
- There’s a hole that leads up to the top plate, you need a long thin screwdriver to reach into there and unscrew the top plates hold on the ground wire.
- If you don’t do this and pull the top plate off first, you will mechanically short the heating element from the bottom chip board causing the unit to break.
In the description on the parts page:
"Sometimes a drop can break this glass. It can be replaced easily by opening the back end big screw with a Torx T20 screwdriver and removing the bottom panel. Then there is another hole inside after removing the bottom panel, under the long screw hole is another hole. Place a screwdriver Torx T20 and push it deep until it reaches the inside of the top panel, and unscrew the screw there until you are sure it is loose, probably some 15 full rotations needed. Now you can remove the top panel, and replace the broken glass lining. When putting back, it is important to tighten again first the internal screw, and then the long screw very tight."
No video that I know of yet, unfortunately. Good luck!
