If your battery is feeling a bit under the weather, fear not! This guide is here to help you swap it out. The battery is nestled inside your laptop, which means you’ll need to gently remove the keyboard module to get to it. Let’s get that power back in action!

Step 1

Before we get started, make sure to switch off your laptop and disconnect it from the power outlet.

– Grab your trusty Philips #1 screwdriver and get ready to tackle those nine screws holding the back cover in place. You’ve got this!

Step 2

Be gentle when prying open the lid! You should hear each plastic clip give a satisfying snap as you glide the spudger along the edge. Remember, patience is key!

– Flip that laptop over and pop open the display like a pro!

– Slide the flat edge of your spudger into the little gap of the keyboard cover.

– With the spudger snug in the crease, gently wiggle it to pry open the casing by gliding it along the edge.

Step 3

Ensure that the entire cover is free from those pesky plastic clips.

– Gently elevate the laptop cover from the front with a touch of finesse, but resist the urge to yank it off completely.

– Take a moment to appreciate the intricate dance of the three charming white and blue data cables linking the keyboard to the computer’s main board.

Step 4

Hey there! If all you’re doing is swapping out the battery, feel free to skip ahead past this step and the next one. Gently move the keyboard module away from the screen and position it so the delicate flex cables aren’t under any stress.

To release a ZIF connector, grab a spudger or just use your fingernail to lift up the tiny, swing-away locking flap. Slowly slide the cable out of the socket once it’s unlocked.

– Unplug the three data cables from the motherboard.
