Einleitung

Use this guide to remove and replace the motherboard.

Werkzeuge

Schritt 1

Remove four 3 mm screws using a 3 mm Hex screwdriver.

Schritt 2

Gently remove the outer casing.
It should be relatively easy to pull apart, but in the case that it is not easy, don't be afraid to apply the necessary force to pull them apart.

Schritt 3

Pull the device from the external case.
Remove four 12 mm screws using a T10 Torx screwdriver.
Remove eight 6 mm screws using a T10 Torx screwdriver.

Schritt 4

Use your hands to gently remove the side plates.
Use the plastic opening tool to pry off the back plate.
It is best to work on the side with the Fugoo trademark.

Schritt 5

Slowly pull the front casing from the back casing. If possible, try to avoid putting any tension on the connected cables.
Separate the two at a slow, consistent pace to avoid damaging the speaker cables.

Schritt 6

Carefully untangle the wires that connect the speaker to the motherboard.

Schritt 7

Use tweezers to remove the two ribbon wires on the left and right side of motherboard.
Do not pull the cables by the cord, as this could damage the cables and the motherboard. It is best to always disconnect the cables from the base, which is closest to the motherboard, using an iFixit opening tool.

Theres a second smaller ribbon cable on the underside of the board on the left in my model, for a total of *3* ribbon cables that need to be disconnected.

Pull the motherboard halfway out.
Gently unplug the ribbon using the tweezers.
There is a hidden ribbon on the motherboard, that becomes visible once the motherboard has been pulled out.

Does the motherboard have the charging port on it

Hi, I just opened my e-mail and this half information Ifixit was there. Wow, I spent weeks researching to find a motherboard. I called Fugoo and they assisted me with the major difficult project. ITs so simple to disassemble. You unscrew it and open it up. Very well built and engineered Bluetooth Speaker. MORE INFO NEXT COMMENT

change the battery just buy a similar battery and swap out the plugs. Very simple too. All I wanted was original though. The Fugoo speaker is awesome and the best. There customer support is perfect. Although, my only problem was with half information given and the details left out. For example, HOW TO REPLACE BATTERY.. The %#*@ instructions are the same as yours. Its how to take it apart. SO SIMPLE. Did you forget to tell everyone how to get the battery or how to modify one, because you can only get them in china and good luck its impossible. MORE INFO NEXT COMMENT

Amazon has them and the Harmon Kardon is a good replacement ($12)you have to swap plugs is all. And you mister your video is not how to replace a motherboard. Its how to take it apart. then the end. Where in the fxxk you find one is my question, because you did not even show a picture of the new one and where to get it or a picture of it installed.
