If I recall correctly, I believe that the sliding portion of the attenuator can be removed from the fixed portion to effect repairs on the resistors and capacitor but it is ringed with spring fingers (to provide grounding) and they must be carefully squeezed together in order to insert the sliding portion back into the fixed portion. You may have to use a piece of paper wrapped around the finger to squeeze them together. I would not suggest using anything sticky, like tape to squeeze and hold the fingers together. That would cause another problem.

apart to replace them. In any case it would be a lot of work.
