    • Repeat Step 4 with the black wire connecting the speaker to the motherboard.

    • Don't leave the soldering iron too long on top of the wire so it doesn't melt any other component in the motherboard or surrounding the area.

    • If soldering is new to you, check out this helpful guide on soldering and desoldering connections.

    • Using a spudger gently remove the speaker from the back of the device.

    • When working with electronics, it's important to choose a tool that's ESD-safe to avoid accidental damage to the device. The metal spudger is great when you need serious prying power, but the regular black nylon spudger should be used whenever possible.

Abschluss

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
