I have a 2465B with a broken Volts/VAR shaft and am asking for second opinion on replacing
The shaft.
My first thought is to pull the front panel out following service manual.
Then proceed to the POT module removal process as described in service manual to
Gain access to the broken shaft for removal from the actual variable pot.
Install a replacement shaft, then reassemble everything.

I have a dead 2465A for parts doner that I plan on practicing on first.

Is there a simpler solution for what I need to do?
After the shaft is replaced, I plan on recapping the LVPS and then replacing the surface mount electrolyte capacitors and DS chip on the A5 board.

I recommend not to pull off the plastic knobs as the service manual says and instead slide off the bezel and the button panel off the pots. The knobs get brittle and break off easily. Otherwise service manual steps are very thorough. Here is an album to explain it better with pictures.
