JBL Charge 2 Teardown

Difficulty

Very easy

Steps

4

Time Required

5 - 15 minutes

Introduction

We will not be tearing the whole thing apart; just the big pieces

This loudspeaker was tinkered at the charge port (installation of a new one).

    • Use a plastic spatula or credit card to open the grids

    • You should not have to exert too much force on the grids. There is a little bit of glue on it.

  2. ZwTNETUos2a1vRHE

    • Remove the first 4 screws

    • Blow up the round of plastic then take care of the remaining 4 screws.

    • Now you can access the motherboard.

    • To disconnect the battery: disconnect the microphone first, it will make things easier.

    • Unscrew the two screws of the white cover

    • Get out of his notch, and here's the battery!

    Nice tutorial on how to dismantle the device, but what if I want to separate out the power bank part of this device and dump the rest due to worn out speakers. Is it possible to do that? If not, will it still work as a power bank if I simply the wires to the speakers and remove them. I’d rather remove the amplifier as well so that unnecessary power consumption is reduced.

I have the same problem. I think this is a TL model, but I have not been able to find any information on how to correctly remove the end caps. I don’t want to scratch or break anything trying to pop the end caps off.

Thanks so much! I had a broken bit of plastic inside the tube after I left my speaker in my checked luggage and it got smashed around. I followed the instructions and managed to get it out, the speaker is purring again without the annoying ass rattle!! You're a legend my friend. TY

Ce tuto ne concerne PAS le charge 2, mais bien le charge 2+

Le principe d’ouverture est bien différent !

So easy steps to follow. Thank you so much. The guide is really helpful.

It came handy when my boss complained about a fault, so I tried figuring it out, then I googled steps to dismantle, and pop! The video showed up. Really helpful. Thanks
