    • Unscrew the six 9.0 mm Phillips #1 screws on the brown circuit board that correspond to the reset and select buttons.

    • Remove gently. The circuit board is connected by wire to the console. Removing the cable from the console case may allow more slack.

Conclusion

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

Hi pradose! We no longer have the device so it will not be possible for our team to walk you through anything beyond the guides we posted.
