Introduction

Before replacing the speakers, make sure they are actually broken by making sure the audio is all the way up and the issue isn’t with the media you are playing. (Try watching the media on another device and see if the audio works or not.)

You will have to remove the motherboard to access the speakers. While removing it, make sure to use caution while replacing the ribbon cables as they could rip.

Before beginning, make sure to power off the projector completely and disconnect from any external power source.
