    • Do not remove the back side of the case, just flip it over. The speaker is connected by wires to the main body, but positioned in the back case.

    • Flip the LCD to the bottom. You can not yet remove it, because it is still attached to the board.

    • The LCD cable is held into the connector via some compression clips. Move both ends carefully away from the connector, toward the LCD.

    • The clips only move about an 1/8 of an inch. Be careful not to use too much force.
