Step-by-Step Guide: How to Replace LG Smartwatch Band
Duration: 45 minutes
Steps: 4 Steps
Ready to replace the band on your LG Watch Sport? This guide will walk you through replacing either band side. Bands are available in gray or black.
Step 1
– Get your workspace all set up and crack open that shiny new band package.
– Check out the tiny PCB tab sticking out at a right angle from the band. That little guy slides right into the watch base—easy as pie!
Step 2
– Alright, grab your Torx 4 bit and let’s gently unscrew those two screws securing the strap. Pro tip: pop those tiny screws in a safe spot, like a magnetic tray – wouldn’t want them going AWOL on you!
Step 3
– With the screws out of the way, give that strap a gentle wiggle while pulling it straight out, keeping it parallel to the watch base. (check out the 1st image for a visual!)
– It might take a bit of muscle, but remember to pull straight out—no bending! We want to avoid breaking off that tiny PCB tab at the end of the band.
– Now’s the perfect moment to tidy up any gunk that might have gathered between the base and the band. Grab a little isopropyl alcohol and a swab to give it a good clean if needed.
Step 4
– You did it! To put everything back together, just follow these steps in reverse. Easy peasy!
– If you need help or got stuck, don’t worry! You can always schedule a repair with Salvation Repair.
– Pat yourself on the back, you’ve completed the repair guide!
Success!
