Howdy, out there; I hope everyone is having a wonderful day.

OK, here is what I am searching for! One of our computers, a T2341 eMachine, has a broken reset button; I am currently searching for a T2341 eMachine bezel frame cover, part number 380-92047. If necessary, I will Also accept the T2341 eMachine full computer case. If you are able to assist, please contact me.

Thank you soooooo much for taking time out of your busy day to review and if applicable, answer my query.

Ebay or DIY

Most frt. panel sw. to activate have a sliding or pushable plastic button that hits a true sw. on a small pcb board. If that plastic has broken, you need another similar one. Make or fashion one from whatever sources seem to fit an/or work. While that maybe cheesy fix, it will work provided the actual sw. itself isn't broken. To get an actual button or true required part, try eMachine stocks to see if they will sell it if in stock -OR- the eBay route. You can simply remove the button and thus have a hole, and use any non-metallic item to push that sw.. You can also, locate the harness connection for frt. panel reset and replace that harness or slice a new toggle monetary sw. from Radio Smack and mount it for ease of access in place of original sw. No thought this is more trouble than expected.

Workaround - you can remove the front cover of the case

Hi all, I had this same problem and eMachine "chat" tech support was somewhat helpful - not completely helpful. They were unable to tell me how to obtain a replacement power button. However, they did provide this helpful link on how to remove and replace the front power button panel:

http://downloads.emachines.com/service_docs/nexgen2_PowerButton_a.pdf

It turns out the button that broke on my system was primarily cosmetic, covering up a green LED and the "real" switch hidden behind it. The front power button panel can be completely removed, revealing the real yellow switch behind it that turns on the system. The system doesn't look quite as nice, but still works fine. This does leave the front of the floppy drive partially exposed, but at least the system can power up and run now.
