Einleitung

This guide will aide you in performing the replacement of the Sony PlayStation Camera's microphone array.

The outer case will scratch easily if the device is not handled with care during the opening process. If the aesthetics don't matter to you, this will not be a problem.

Finding the seam to start the case separation can be difficult. Using a flashlight, or very well lit area, can help to find the seam under the right angle. This can be helpful during this step.

    • Using extreme care, separate the front of the case, from the back with a metal spudger, or pry tool. The case will scratch easily.

    • The case joints can be hard to spot. They appear as a very fine line in the plastic. Start with light pressure until the seam parts, allowing the pry tool to work.
