Hello! I was scared of the task too. But he would have been a fitter by far, so I started. I also watched a Youtube video and did the job.

Remove the battery one day before installation. I covered the condenser with a paper towel to avoid accidentally touching it. It will work anyway. Soldering is no big deal, just do it fast, don't overheat the solenoid. Practice soldering first if you are uncertain.
When assembling, pay attention to the position of the AF-Manual switch. And done.

Hello! In the video, I now look at filing soleonid, it is not recommended, it is not a durable solution. I changed it.

Hello! In the video I am now watching how to rasp the soleonide. Its not recommended in the forum, its not a durable solution. I replaced the solenoid.

Thank you for the praise, yes, unfortunately it was a bad surprise for me too. At two years old, the Pentax should pay more attention to quality because of such a long-standing bug. I don't understand how to pass on an obvious mistake from generation to generation.
Sincerely, Attila

Thank you very much for the excellent description!
I had to change solenoids on a Pentax K-70. The replacement was a complete success. I encourage anyone who has the technical know-how and installation experience to not be afraid to replace.
Best regards, everyone! Attila
