    • 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.

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

    • Use a spudger to disconnect the yellow antenna wire from the ZIF connector by opening the brown latch holding the wire in place.

    • Remove the antenna.

    The antenna ribbon cable has a latch that must be lifted first. It's a light muddy brown color. It flips up and away in the opposite direction of the ribbon cable.

    • Do not remove the ribbon cables without lifting the latch or the cable will be damaged.

    • Lift the latches on the ribbon cable connectors. All the ribbon cables may have latches. The right most latch may have a latch that flips in the opposite direction from the others.

    • Gently pull the ribbon cables out of their connectors. They should slide out easily.

    • Do not separate the two halves of the device yet or the on/off cable may be severed.

Great instructions, thank you

I was able to fix my GPS which I thought was headed for the recyclers.

Saved me from purchasing a replacement.
