Introduction

First make sure the connecting magnets are clear of debris, which may be preventing them from closing. If there are any obstructions, clear these away and the magnets should stick once again. However, in the event that there is no obstruction, perform a magnetic test on the lid magnet to the front door to determine if you need to replace the lid.

In step one, you must pry glue from plastic, so be gentle to avoid breaking or damaging the lid further.

Step 3

Turn the device around, so that the back is facing you.
Look for the small rectangles along the back of the device. For every two rectangles, there is one cylindrical connector in between the two.
Wedge one or two iFixit opening picks in the seam connecting the Top Door to the device, and use the iFixit opening tool to pry upwards along the seam.
These actions should reveal the cylindrical connectors.
