Einleitung

Wenn dein Akku sich nicht mehr gut aufladen lässt, musst du den Akku austauschen. Im Charge 3 ist ein 6000 mAh Akku eingebaut.

    • Lege dein Gerät mit der Unterseite nach oben und setze ein Plastiköffnungswerkzeug vertikal in den Schlitz in der Frontabdeckung ein.

    • Ziehe das Werkzeug langsam nach außen und löse die Rasten, mit denen die Abdeckung befestigt ist.

    • Wiederhole dieses Verfahren an allen vier Kanten der Frontabdeckung.

    Sometimes disassemblers forget that the first time they disassembled the item it didn’t want to give up easily: I didn’t like the forces I was having to apply at all, so I switched to two plastic prying tools per “corner” and one in-between them (total 5, you could use plectrums…) before I was happy the the forces were low enough not to break anything.

    the front grill is supposed to be first not the back the back has longer while the front has shorter clip

    There are two Phillips head screws to remove before prying the cover off

    Where in south Africa can I buy jbl charge3 port bay replacement

    There appears to be different versions of the Charge 3. If you find it difficult to pry open a second side the two small screws mentioned by Jason will need to be removed but it also indicates that there will be some additional changes to this tear down that I will try to convey in the comments as well.

    john Ramirez -

    Sadly I damaged the latches on my charge 3. There was more to it than just prying the front cover up. First, there is a small latch on both sides that you need to push down before pulling the front cover towards you that release the clips holding the front cover in place. Pull only slightly forward because… Second, in the front cover there are 6 circular notches connected to the front cover in tue four corners including the middle corners, you need to squeeze the front cover a little bit gently removing the notches so they dont break (like mine did).

    Definitely had to watch about 10 videos and still couldn’t get it to pop out easily.. Took a look at the first picture in the next step and really took note of where the little hole that lets you through to push down the tab is. Once I took a look at that and combined the techniques I’d seen in some of the videos it finally popped off easily. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7i0_nD9... I only watched the first minute of this video but it helped a good bit if anyone else is having trouble.

    • Ziehe die Abdeckung auf beiden Seiten vorsichtig auseinander und entferne sie vom Gehäuse.

    • Im Inneren der Frontabdeckung befinden sich Löcher, die beim Zusammenbau in die entsprechenden Stifte des Lautsprechergehäuses passen müssen

    • Das Entfernen der Frontabdeckung beeinflusst nicht die Abdichtung gegen Feuchtigkeit. Allerdings werden beim weiteren Zerlegen des Lautsprechers wasserdichte Verklebungen und Dichtungen beschädigt. Dein Gerät wird danach wahrscheinlich nicht mehr länger wasserfest sein.

    Include dissembling the plastic cover? cover?

    KanGoon -

    @KanGoon Yes, on mine it took the removal of 6 (reasonably obvious) screws to remove that. I’ll try to insert a photo when I reassemble…

    Frank Puranik -

    Very good guide! Pics and descriptions make this easy!

    John G Petko -

    There is a step missing here. How do you remove the rubber cover that covers the port?

    Phillip Luebke -

    Gibt es eine Möglichkeit diese wieder wasserdicht zu bekommen?

    • Entferne die beiden 8 mm Kreuzschlitzschrauben #1 von den Laschen.

    • Möglicherweise ist auch nur eine Schraube vorhanden.

    If your Charge 3 doesn’t look like the above. Do not do this step YET. Go directly to Step 7 removal of the battery. By doing the battery first it will tell you which radiator to remove and thus no need to remove both.

    NOTE:

    On a newer version of the Charge 3 this image will be very different. you will not find a screw. You will also notice that there are two tabs that if slightly lifted while rotating the radiator counter clockwise the radiator is easily removed. There is also no foam or breakable seal on the newer Charge 3.

    • Setze unter beide Laschen ein Plastiköffnungswerkzeug ein.

    Beim Modell 2016 geht es noch einfacher: Da ist es ein Bajonett-Verschluss (und nur 1 Schraube im vorigen Schritt). Man muss die Abdeckung nur ein paar Grad gegen den Uhrzeigersinn drehen und kann sie dann einfach abziehen. Schritt 5 und 6 entfallen.

    Franz -

    I believe this is unnecessary, just turn the passive radiator counter clockwise and pull outward. I tried to use the pry tool and broke a plastic tab.

    Frank Krantz -

    Tip— when you get to this part lightly tap the edge of the speaker on a hard surface— like you’re tapping a jar before opening it.

    maxthibodeaux -

    Muchas gracias a todos, me dieron cada uno la guía perfecta.

    Rafael de la Torre Perez -

    My charge 3 had less screws but the process was the same. Thanks for the instructions!

    • Verdrehe den Passivstrahler und ziehe ihn zum Öffnen heraus. Den linken Strahler musst du im Uhrzeigersinn drehen, den rechten gegen den Uhrzeigersinn.

    • Wiederhole alle Schritte für den Passivstrahler auf der anderen Seite.

    • Zum Ersetzen des Akkus muss nur der rechte Strahler entfernt werden.

    right or left…. depends on how you view the Charge 3 i guess. No need to remove both radiators for a newer Charge 3. You can remove the battery cover first…find out what side the battery wires exit the battery compartment and then remove the radiator associated with that same side.

    john Ramirez -

    Anybody else have major problems trying to twist the radiator back into position after replacing the battery? I’m having trouble getting the screw holes to line up again on the right radiator.

    Chapman Steamer 1 -

    To twist back I used saliva so it will slide easier against the rubber

    • Entferne die sechs 8 mm Kreuzschlitzschrauben #1 von der äußeren Akkuabdeckung.

    • Löse die äußere Akkuabdeckung vom Lautsprechergehäuse ab

    For the newer Charge 3 - there are two silver screws located on the opposite side of the charging ports ….. looking at the first picture above they would be in close proximity to the lower two red circles. However, they placed in horizontally not vertically. Once you remove these two screws you can lift the rubber off.

    Note: The rubber is hinged on the opposite side of the two removed screws by tabs. Be careful when rotating it off not to break the tabs.

    Once the rubber is removed…. you will be able to see the battery compartment. It has several black screws… one of which is wedged between the charging port rubber and the battery cover. You can gently pry up the rubber away to allow you to get a screw driver in to get the middle screw out.

    The battery compartment is water tight and has a seal. You will want to loosen all screws evenly so as not to tear or damage the rubber seal.

    • Entferne die sieben 8 mm Kreuzschlitzschrauben #1 von der inneren Akkuabdeckung.

    • Entferne die innere Akkuabdeckung.

    The newer Charge 3 will have a solid black cover. Once removed the battery can be easily lifted out with your fingers. It is not taped in.

    Gently lift the battery to determine the radiator that needs to be removed. You can identify it by following the battery wiring. There is a small hole at the bottom of the battery compartment that the battery wires go through. The side with the battery wiring hole is the same side as the radiator that needs to be removed.

    • Ziehe vorsichtig und löse den Stecker am Kabelbündel an der Seite des Lautsprechers ab. Dadurch wird der Akku von der Hauptplatine abgetrennt.

    mon problème d’origine était pas de charge sur secteur, dans mon cas nappe 11 connecteurs déconnectée. Je n’ai pas vu de système de retient pour cette nappe, je lui ai ajouté un petit point de colle, car bouge relativement beaucoup ! problème résolu

    • Ziehe den Akku und das Kabel aus dem Akkufach heraus.

    Where can I find (shop) a battery replacement ?

    erik g5 -

    yo tambien quiero una bateria donde la cosigo?

    henryovidioquispemamani -

    Does anyone know where I can buy a replacement battery?

    Tissaka Senarath -

    Unbedingt die Isolierung um das Kabel und die Polster an den Ecken der Batterie von der alten an die neue basteln, sonst kann sie im Fach hin und her klappern.

    Jaakob Wolff -

    Se podria adactar este dispositivo directo a un cargador directo?

    Branlys Lopez Barnada -

    I already did many things to my charge 3 and one of them was to put two direct cables to the battery to be able to charge it since the usb port was damaged and I could not find a replacement, next I will add 4 more batteries

    Ricky Almonte -

    perdon que te respondi en ingles, yo le puse un cable directo usb a la bateria ya que el puerto usb se daño y no pude encontrar repuestos

    Ricky Almonte -

Abschluss

Um dein Gerät wieder zusammenzusetzen, folge den Schritten in umgekehrter Reihenfolge

you legend. thank you so much! i was worried it was a seal unit!

Anthony Hilfischer -

Super Anleitung! Hat der Akkutausch hat problemlos funktioniert!

Tomas Opmann -

thank you so much :D

punkzmarc -

Great Guide! Where can I get the foamy coating of the battery’s wires? Or what is the proper term?

Dom Heizmann -

I saw one on youtube taking the one from the old battery and putting it on the new one

I used two credit card instead od the plastic opening tool, they work great. Thanks for the help!!!

Philip Panici -

awesome …thanks … just not sure where to buy a replacement battery in South Africa?

ig Aucamp -

Thankyou so much! I was about to buy a new one but this was super

Mark Tsao -

I did this and now I get a red blinking light when trying to charge it. No idea how to fix it.

Andre Gauthier -

Wow thank you! Very clear instructions, easy repair. So happy to have my stereo back!

My old battery was so swollen, i wonder what caused that?

Dan Warden -

Thank you for this guide! It wasn’t exactly the same as my Charge3, but close enough. The original battery (once I got to it) was swelling and had broken some of the plastic tabs around the screws. Ugh. Good thing I found this guide and the battery purchased through iFixit. Thanks again!

Darrik -

For the love of God, don’t try to follow these instructions. They are worse than useless. I wasted 2 hours and over $60 between the battery and new screwdrivers and the end result is that I can’t even get the battery open to change it. Also, when I tried to put the cover back on the tab broke off so now my speaker is completely useless. (Prior to attempting to fix it, it still worked great when it was plugged in). I would have been better off just buying a new speaker for a little more than 2x the cost of the battery, considering that now I’m going to have to do that anyway. Thanks for absolutely nothing (except scamming people into buying replacement batteries from you).

Steve -

Thank you for the instructions nailed

Wilfredo Guzman -

Good guide. Not a great guide, but a good guide. When you use this in conjunction with more detailed resources it works very well. I couldn’t find any one guide that gave all the details, but found many which provided enough different details to piece it together. This guide made for a very clear outline of the process.

Rowan Darko -

Do you provide an alternative to instead of replacing the battery. We just replace its powersource?. The battery is 1/3rd the price of the unit already. Replacing the powersource from a micro usb port should do the trick to using it long term without spending 40-50 bucks every 12-18 months just to replace the battery.

Joshua Cariño -

This is a JBL Charge 3? It looks nothing, in the inside, like the one I have, and the battery is just a small cylinder, nothing like what you've shown above. There are only 2 tabs for the front cover, the other two are screwed in. And there are 8 small screws to completely disassemble the unit, this is so odd! Well, thank you, at least i was able to open it, but the cylindrical battery appears to be hardwire.

Monica Tew -

A great guide, thank you.

With steps 4,5 and 6, I had a much better time lifting the tabs by putting the thin plastic spudgers between the tabs, instead of using the plastic opening tools.

Roel Sierkstra -

So I decided to change my battery, once I popped off the cover, I noticed that I was dealing with a swollen battery. Is it safe to unplug, or will that cause it to go off, so to speak?

P C -

New battery in, didn’t charge either… Probably something wrong with the charging circuit, too bad.

Either way, good step by step manual, managed to open it en seal it up again properly!

Brent De Pauw -

bonjour, mon problème d’origine était pas de charge sur secteur.En cause la grosse nappe déconectée. Merci Ifixit pour ce tuto qui m’a bien orienté !

Walter Rousseau -

awesome guide, could replace it quick. thank you very much

Lukas Tram -

Good Guide mate, I just replaced my Charge 3+ which is a bit different from the original but aside from having 2 screws holding the last part of woven cover, the right radiator “now” has two pull tabs that you slide the picks in and just rotate the radiator base. Other than that seems pretty similar and/or intuitive. There’s a few videos on youtube opening the charge 3+ in case someone needs a visual hand.

Shady Morais -

Très content de ce tutoriel qui m' a permis de changer la batterie de ma Charge 3 facilement et de pouvoir continuer à m'en servir. Merci !

Thierry GUILLAUME -

My jbl charge3 speaker will turn on, but will immediately turn off & when charging will blink at the first of the 5 charging indicators...how can this be repaired?

Arnold Perry -

can i get a new battery cover .my battery has swollen and destroyed all the screw mounts?
