Step 1
– Flip that laptop upside down like you’re giving it a fresh start.
– Find those two battery lock tabs—they’re hiding, but not for long!
Step 2
The left tab stays loose and carefree, but you’ll need to hold down the right tab to keep things steady.
– Give those tabs a little slide outward action to free the battery! You’ve got this!
– While keeping that right tab open, gently slide the battery out of your laptop like a pro.
Step 3
Go easy on the pressure! Those latches are stubborn and won’t come off—you’ll just end up bending them if you force it.
– Grab your trusty plastic opening tool and gently pop up the four metal latches hanging out in the battery compartment on the underside of your laptop.
Step 4
Hey there! Just a quick heads up: avoid completely yanking out that keyboard! Doing so could put a serious crimp in the ribbon cable that connects it to the laptop. Keep it gentle, and your device will thank you!
– First, let’s flip that laptop over and pop open the display like a pro.
– Next, grab a trusty plastic opening tool and gently lift the edge of the keyboard that’s closest to the screen.
– Now, carefully raise the keyboard and slide it towards the screen. You’ve got this!
Step 5
The tabs on this ZIF connector, depending on the model, either pop up like a tiny flip-top lid or gently slide out toward the display.
– You made it! To put everything back together, just follow these steps in reverse. Nice job!
