The Wifi module is one of the ways you can pair your music device to the speaker as well as be used to pair the speaker to other speakers. This module could be faulty in the case of water damage or damage due to electric shock. This guide will demonstrate the removal of the WiFi module and from mounting tape.

    • Working on your device while it is turned on may result in electric shock. Make sure to shut down and unplug your device before you begin.

    • Use the plastic opening tool to lift and remove the rubber grommet plugs.

  2. pJ21wxngg13RTVPU
    • Using a PH1 Philips screwdriver, remove four (9.5mm x 1.6mm) screws from the base plate.

    • Remove base plate by stabilizing speaker and using plastic prying tool to pry the base plate from the speaker.

  3. Zbs1l32MBXQsce4v
    • Place the speaker on the table with the Touch Pad facing down. This will leave you with the Port Panel exposed.

    • Remove speaker grill by stabilizing speaker on a table and applying pressure to the bottom of the speaker. Slide the speaker grill up and away from the remaining endcap.

    • Remove the two exposed (9.5mm x 1.6mm) PH1 Phillips screws on the Port Panel.

    • Remove the Port Panel from the speaker body, exposing the ribbon cables.

  5. TDdcMom4Duo5aTAE
    • While stabilizing the Port Panel remove the two ribbon cables one at a time by pressing the locking clip down on the ribbon cable connectors and pulling the connector away from the Port Panel.

    I understand this is a guide for working on the Samsung wam 1500 yourself. But where can you get the parts from. I can not find them online. I need to replace the usb/power port panel

Hi,

I am new here. You did an excellent job! I would like to know the point of removing the wifi module. Is it to replace it? If you were to replace it, where would you buy the part? Also, I do not have the R1. I have the R7. Do you know if it is similar? Thanks very much

Alex
