ID: 2445
Description: You can change the battery by opening up the GPS.
Steps:
- Remove the four rubber caps from the back by using the Phillips #00 screwdriver.
- Remove the four screws holding the cover in place by using the Phillips #00 screwdriver.
- Remove the back cover from the device by separating the back cover along its seam.
- Slowly lift the cover—the speaker is screwed onto the back cover and is connected to the circuit board.
- Pull the speaker cord, horizontally, by its base, away from the motherboard.
- When reassembling, make sure that you plug the terminal in the same way. The black wire should be on the side farthest from the battery.
