Einleitung

A step-by-step guide to removing the outer case of the Garmin Nuvi 680.

  1. XEmeuOsoOXBrouSD

    • Flip open the antenna on the back of the device.

    • Remove the two 4.42 mm screws on the antenna cover using a T5 Torx screwdriver.

  2. LJuoqmXTZBYifRs2

    • Remove the antenna cover.

    • The yellow wire is connected to the motherboard, so you cannot disconnect it until you finish opening the device.

    • Pull the antenna circuit board out of its case.

    • Insert the pointed end of a spudger into the leftmost slit of the antenna case.

    • Push the spudger to the right.

    • Slide the antenna case out slowly or you may lose the antenna's spring. The spring is inside the black plastic that holds the antenna case to the device.

    • Slide the antenna case out of the device.

    • Reinstallation tip: first reassemble the antenna casing (place antenna back into its plastic cover), and then re-insert the entire assembly back into the GPS body.

    • Remove the two screws on the back of the outer case using a T5 Torx screwdriver.

    • These screws are 10.82 mm long.

    • Gently pull apart the front and back of the device. The front and back are still connected by ribbon cables.

    • Starting along the top, separate the front and back of the device by pushing an iPod-opening tool into the crack along each side of the case.

Abschluss

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

This guide works for the Garmin Nuvi 660 and 670 as well.

Thomas Bauer -

great instructions thank you! most of it also works for the NUVI 350, this one has an extra screw that holds the circuit board, and the connectors are different. Fixed the on/off button that broke of the soldering tips by re-soldering and adding some support at the back of the switch so this can't happen again.
