Introduction

What you need

Step 1

              Remove battery cover and batteries               
  • Unclip the battery cover, and remove the batteries (they’re a tight fit - the purple ribbon should help though)

Step 2

              Remove the two screws at the bottom of the battery compartment               
  • Remove the two phillips screws at the lower edge of the battery compartment

Step 3

              Separate the casing               
  • The casing is now held together by a pair of snap-fixings on each side, which will require careful prising apart.
  • Using the picture as a guide to show where the catches are (red circles), use a small screwdriver or a spudger-type tool to release them levering outwards, then carefully separate the two halves of the casing

Step 4

              Release the LCD               
  • The LCD is held on by a pair of small plastic lugs, one each side. Release these one at a time, while gently lifting the LCD up from the board.
  • Once both clips are released, it will hinge forward and down.

Step 5

              Release PCB from case               
  • Remove the two screws from under the LCD
  • Remove the single screw in the middle of the lower part of the PCB
  • Gently bend up the two charging connectors on the lower edge of the PCB that stick through the case to free it
  • Lift the PCB from the case, lower edge first

Step 6

              Inspect and repair loose switches               
  • With the PCB removed, inspect the switches along the top edge.
  • On mine, the solder holding the switch mounting tabs to the PCB had failed, leaving both tabs and pads intact
  • Carefully resolder these, ensuring enough heat is applied to ensure a good joint, but without damaging neighbouring components

Step 7

              Reassemble               
  • Reassembly is the reverse of dismantling.
  • Remember to bend the charging connectors back into place so they are correctly seated
  • Replace the vibrate motor into its’ groove.
  • Ensure the switches all operate correctly before clipping the two case halves back together - sometimes the little pieces of adhesive foam on the ‘button pressers’ need to be adjusted.
