Introduction

This guide will help the user replace the individual light fixtures inside this device. You will need a screwdriver and a metal spudge.

Tools

Step 1

On the opposite side of the speaker should be a sticker, remove it with your fingers or the flat plastic iFIxit tool.
Use a Philip's screwdriver to take the screws out of the cover.

Step 2

Once the screws are all out, the cover should come off revealing the motherboard.

Step 3

You will notice that the triangular black volume piece is loose, make sure to take that off revealing the buttons.
Once that is done, the motherboard can be taken out. May require some wiggling.
Make sure none of the wires are damaged and that they are all connected.

Step 4

The connections shown here can be taken off by pulling on the white plastic connector piece.
The same can be said about the white, paper like, connectors. Pull on them gently.
Once all connections are apart, the motherboard is safe to be replaced.

Any insight on where to get a new motherboard for these?

Would try contacting the company for spare parts.

Step 5

Use the screwdriver to unscrew the screws on the left and right sides.

Step 6

Once unscrewed, use the metal spudge to lift the base of the light fixture.

Step 7

Lift the base of the light fixture out with the lights.
Be careful. The light fixture's can be easily bent.
