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 Side keys

To finish, we disconnected the flex from the base plate, remove the flex support and remove it.

Now we press the keys inwards and remove them.
