N5NA has written an excellent account of replacing the small push-button
encoders.
https://www.n5na.net/s9y/index.php?/archives/26-Replacing-Elecraft-K3-Push-Button-Encoders.html
I have replaced all of these encoders in several K3 radios over the past
5 years. It is not a job for the faint-hearted. However, if you take
your time and cut the mounting pins of the encoders before you unsolder
them, then you will succeed. Do not attempt to remove the LED board.
Make sure you wick out the mounting holes thoroughly or you will have
difficulty installing the new encoders.
Good luck
