I am answering my own question. I removed the four rubber pads on the bottom apparently held on by some kind of contact cement. This revealed four screws. I removed these and opened the phone. There was a small board in there, and the wires are hardwired to it. The plastic pieces that the wires enter the base through(the ones which are also visble from the outside of the base when assembled) are to keep the wires from pulling through. The wires go through them in a zig zag. So the wires are not servicable by just plugging them in etc. Some soldering or some other connections would have to be made by a skilled person. I was surprized at how little there was inside the base. The older phones were much heavier with a lot more things inside. Anyway, maybey this will help someone else. Have a nice day.
