    • Once the device is opened, lift the battery out of the black plastic holder.

    • Carefully pull the battery out and ensure that it's wires are still connected to the inside.

    You can disconnect the back/trigger assembly ribbon cable at this point by proceeding to Steps 13/14 (without the other steps for disassembly as they are unnecessary for replacing just the trigger).

When putting the plastic battery rig back in on my second time doing this, I bent one of the little plastic pins that fits into a hole in the PCB. Definitely want to be careful with that. To make it a bit easier, I unscrewed the bottom port PCB part of the way so I could take the bottom plastic housing and put the plastic battery rig in straight. It made it a lot easier.

No need to take out the motor, just use sharp tweezers and grab the connector (NOT the wires) and with small wiggling pull it out. Worked for mine.

Worked great! Thanks for this. I did not need to take out the black battery / motor piece. Tweezers worked great to remove and install the battery cable

Any recommended online / physical store to buy new batteries for this because ifixit doesn’t have them?
