Introduction

The speaker is responsible for audio volume and quality, so poor audio quality will require a speaker replacement.

Prior to starting the replacement, please turn the power off on the computer and disconnect any external power sources, such as the device charger.

What you need

Step 1

              Bottom Screen/Keyboard
  • Turn off and power down the device before beginning this process. A heat gun or hair dryer will be suitable to heat the adhesive that holds down the screen. Apply heat to the entire surface area of the bottom screen.
  • New adhesive will be required when completing the steps in reverse order.
