Steps: 7 Steps
Get ready to tackle the battery replacement for your Asus X555LA! We’ll walk you through the process step by step, making it a breeze. And remember, if you hit a snag, don’t hesitate to schedule a repair for some extra help!
Step 1
– Let’s start by removing these screws from the lower case:
– Six 9 mm screws
– Four 11 mm screws
Step 2
Hey there! Just a friendly reminder: don’t go yanking off the top cover completely! It’s still connected by two ribbon cables that we’ll be taking care of in the next steps. Hang tight!
– Grab your trusty plastic opening tool and get ready to work some magic separating the top cover from the laptop.
– Kick things off by gently prying along the front of the laptop—it’s like opening a really stubborn cookie jar.
– Work your way around the edges, prying as you go, and end your quest just under the screen to pop the front cover loose.
Step 3
Look out for a connector that features a white base and a tiny grey rotating latch—it’s like a little secret handshake for your device!
When it’s time to pull out that cable, it should come out with barely any effort. If it’s putting up a fight, something might be off!
– To pop that ZIF latch loose, just give the little white tab a gentle lift.
– Now, gently tug the white ribbon cable out of the socket to disconnect it. You’ve got this!
Step 4
– Let’s get that keyboard cable loose! To release the ZIF latch, simply flip up the grey rotating tab – easy peasy!
– Now it’s time to gently coax the black and blue ribbon cable out of its connector. Take your time, it’s a delicate dance, but you’ve got this!
Step 5
– Go ahead and carefully lift off the keyboard and front panel. Now you’re ready to dive into the inner workings of the laptop—take it step by step!
Step 6
– Unscrew the trio of 5mm Phillips #0 screws holding the battery in place—don’t lose them!
Step 7
– To put your device back together, just reverse these steps—it’s as easy as rewinding a mixtape.
– If things get tricky or you’d rather leave it to the pros, you can always schedule a repair.
