Breathe deeply. Trying times are ahead,

but we promise the lower case does come

off.Push the thin rims of the lower case surrounding the

battery compartment in, bending them past the

tabs, and then lift up to free that corner of the lower

case.

There is a slot on the wall of the battery

compartment that locks the lower case in place. Use

a small flathead screwdriver to pry out the slot's

lower rim and pull up on the lower case to free the

slot from the tabs holding it.

Run a spudger along the seam between the lower

case and upper case on the front of the computer to

free the tabs locking the lower case. Pull up on the

lower case and continue to use the spudger as

necessary until you hear three distinct clicks.

Continue to run the spudger around the front, right

corner. There are two tabs on the port side of the

computer, one near the front corner and one near

the sound-out port.

There are three tabs over the optical drive that must

be released before the lower case can come off.

Slide the spudger into the lower case above the

optical drive and run it toward the back of the

computer until you hear three distinct clicks.

We recommend placing the computer on a

slab of grey anti-static packing foam from

this point on to prevent damaging the logic

board.

Turn over the computer and open it.

Pry up the magnet covering a Phillips screw near the

middle of the computer.

Remove the following 7 screws from the edges of

the keyboard area.

Three 2 mm Phillips along the right edge.

One 4.5 mm Phillips underneath where the

magnet was.

One 6 mm Phillips with a small head in the lower

left corner.

Two 6 mm Phillips with large heads, one in the

upper left corner and one in the middle

Before you can yank the upper case off,you must disconnect the trackpad

connector, the blue and white power cable,

and speaker cable as described in the next steps.

Lift the upper case from the right side and use a

spudger or your finger to disconnect the trackpad

connector hidden beneath the white plastic tab. Due

to model variatons your trackpad connector may be

different from the one pictured.

Carefully lift the upper case about half of an inch

and move it so that you can access the power and

speaker cables.

If the upper case is sticking, it may be

necessary to free the tabs holding the

upper case to the metal framework along

the outer edge of the battery compartment.

The connectors at the ends of the cables

are attached very firmly to the sockets on

the logic board. Pulling directly on the

cable will either separate the cable from its

connector or the socket from the logic board.

Lift the upper case enough to disconnect the blue

and white power cable from the logic board. Us ing

your fingernails or a dental pick, carefully pry the

connector from its socket. Make sure you're pulling

only on the connector and not on the socket.

EditStep 34 Top Shield

EditStep 35



Lift the upper case off completely and disconnect

the multicolored speaker cable from the logic board.

As before, make sure you're pulling only on the

connector and not on the socket.

Tip: the multi-coloured cable may be

easier and less daunting to disconnect

after removing the top heat shield. Prop

the top case upright while removing the shield - the

connector is then much more accessible.

Remove the following 15 screws:

Fourteen 3 mm Phillips.

One 5.5 mm Phillips in the upper left corner.

Lift the top shield up from the right side, minding the

upper left corner, which may catch on the metal

framework.
