Introduction
Dead or malfunctioning batteries are often attributed to a device’s age, but other causes include blocked power ports or faulty power cables. If clearing the power port and replacing the cables does not allow the battery to hold a charge, a battery replacement is probably the answer.
The only tools necessary for this replacement are the Phillips #0 and #1 screwdrivers, as well as the plastic opening tool. Replacing the battery is a simple task, but care must be taken when removing the back panel from your device.
What you need
Step 1
Battery
- Turn off the device and set it upside down. Orient the hinges away from you.
- Wedge the opening pick under the grip. Lift the end of the grip.
- Pull the grip off all the way. Repeat for the second grip.
