Tutorial: Step by step

Step 1 Remove back cover

We start by heating the back part at about 65 ° C for about a minute to soften the adhesive that holds the lid. When it is hot, we introduce an opening tool between it and the frame to take it off.

Step 2 Remove intermediate housing

We took out the seventeen Phillips screws (PH # 00) that hold the intermediate housing and then pulled it off by prying it all the way around.

Step 3 Drums

Remove the two Phillips screws (PH # 00) that hold the shield of the motherboard to disconnect the battery. To detach it we can pull the tabs to remove the adhesive but in our case it was hardly stuck, so we could separate it easily.
