Einleitung

Use this guide to replace the speakers in a Lenovo Yoga 730 13-IKB (model numbers starting with “81CT”).

Muffled or no sound from the laptop can indicate broken speakers. Review these steps for fixing audio problems in Windows before replacing the entire speaker assembly.

There are no special skills needed for this guide and you will need a Phillips #0 screwdriver, a Phillips #00 screwdriver, a T5 screwdriver, and plastic opening tools. Keep any debris or liquids away from the computer while replacing the speakers because the internal components of the laptop will be exposed.

    • Slide a plastic opening tool underneath the back case near the screen hinges. Gently pry up on either side.

    • Slide the opening tool underneath the back case next to the middle screw hole at either side of the case. Gently pry up.

    • You may hear popping sounds as the tabs securing the case release. This is normal. If the case does not move, try prying at a different angle/position.

    • Disconnect the battery cable by gently pulling it straight out of the connector.

    • The battery connector does not lock and requires light pressure to insert and remove. To reinstall the battery cable, hold onto the black housing and push it into the motherboard connector.

    • Pull the speaker wire out from the plastic hooks on the laptop frame.
