Introduction
The speakers are wired together as a single unit, and as such, cannot be replaced independently without rewiring one of the speakers. Also to note, the speaker cable runs through the right side daughterboard. This means if a speaker replacement has failed to solve your audio problems, a right daughterboard replacement may be necessary, especially if the audio issues occurred after water exposure to the left side of the computer.
Be sure to unplug and completely turn off your device before you start working.
What you need
Step 1
Back Cover
- Using a T5 Torx screwdriver, remove the ten 5.5 mm screws from the back case of the laptop.
