Title: Looking for a CPC 6128 Power switch.
Post by: remax on 21:19, 13 January 18
I'm housing my cost-down 6128 motherboard, that i had laying in a cardboard for some time, in a totally empty 6128 case.


I had a standalone keyboard, but i have no power switch, so i'm looking for one so that my CPC become usable. If i try to use the one from my other 6128, it works, so i'm really that near of having another usable CPC...


If you have another idea, i'm earing you!

Get those, will do, actually I bought 5 of them in the past and they fitted perfectly. Measure the original you have to be sure...

I probably have a few spare original switches, will check later.

Hi remax,
      here's what I have. Do you just need the power switch or the complete assembly with volume control. I have both.

If you can give me the complete thing, that would be even better !


I was counting on my TV (using an appropriate scart) to give me sound, but having the internal speaker would always be a good plus.

I got it, it works well even if i scared myself by not plugin the switch at the right spot (it's inverted between my CRTC1 and my CRTC4 hence my error, i plugged it on the 12v entry in fact).


So thanks for all, my CRTC4 is now in a usable state.


I miss the led on my case, it's not a big deal, but i saw one on ebay for a CPC Plus at an OK price : https://www.ebay.fr/itm/LED-CARCASSE-ORDINATEUR-AMSTRAD-CPC-6128-PLUS/273033760328?hash=item3f92148e48:g:AeoAAOSwD39aY1M6


I don't mind the fact it's not of the right color, but would you think it would fit/work on a standard CPC ? :)

Doh!!! Why didn't you say this BEFORE I sent you the switch, I could have sent you a solution for this too.  :picard:

That's your fault :-D. At first, i only wanted a switch, but now that i filled the volume pot. i'm starting to want to fill everything that is missing :-D

Well, no hurry as now the cpc works so we'll see in a few time.
