Step 2

  • Carefully pry the tape from the battery, the bottom left chip, and the ribbon cable towards the bottom-right of the board. The bottom left has a little silver square component that must also be unclipped and untaped.
  • The battery is glued to the back of the screen; therefore pull the battery off of the back with caution. There will be resistance but that’s okay.
