Einleitung

The furby speaker is connected to a circuit board that is accessible once the outer shell is removed. Removing the connector tabs are the hardest part of this guide.

Werkzeuge

Schritt 1

Use a flathead screwdriver to remove the two 10mm screws on the base of the Furby.

Schritt 2

Use a Phillips #0 driver to unscrew the eight 10mm screws.
Remove the base ring after unscrewing all the screws.
Be careful when lifting the base ring from the Furby. There are sharp edges that hold the base ring in place.

Schritt 3

Unhook the white ribbon from the tab on the base.

Schritt 4

Roll the Furby's fur downward.
Disconnect the now exposed red wire.

Schritt 5

Locate the two middle clips first.
Locate the two remaining clips on Furby's sides, they are opposite each other.
Orient the Furby upside down with the tail facing away from you.

Schritt 6

Insert a metal prying tool directly into the clip opening.
Press upward into the clip. At the same time, use your other hand to pull away the plastic seam from the Furby's body.
Repeat the previous step to remove the remaining three clips.

Schritt 7

Locate the two 10mm screws and remove them with the Phillips #0 head screwdriver.
Lift up on the fur covering until the face of the Furby is exposed.

Schritt 8

Orient the Furby on its side to where the beak is facing left and locate the edge of the aluminum tape.
Lift tape gently and peel back until the tape is nearly removed.
Do not pull on the yellow wire located on the opposite end of the tape.

Schritt 9

Locate the four 10mm screws. Two on either side of body, and two on top of back plate, around the tape.
Remove the 10mm screws with the Phillips#0 screwdriver.

Schritt 10

Peel the tape gently, grabbing it from the bottom edge and folding the tape upward.
Peel the tape up until it is nearly detached from the black case.

Schritt 11

Orient the Furby face down, with the base facing away from you.
Locate the clips below the ears.
Repeat the technique used in Step 6. Create leverage using a metal prying tool to press upward into the clip, while also pulling back on the clip itself.

Schritt 12

Remove the loose, plastic back panel by pulling the panel away from Furby's body.

Schritt 13

Orient Furby to where the mouth is facing left. Locate the speaker on the side of the device.
Lift the speaker out.

Use the blunt tweezers to pinch the latch on the speaker's casing. Detach the speaker from the both latches on both sides and remove the speaker's casing.

Schritt 15

Lift the connector, using the Blunt Tweezers, while tugging on the speaker's wire.
Plug the new speaker in by clipping the connector into place where the old connector was removed from.
