    • Before opening your laptop, make sure it is powered off.

    • Remove the ten 3.3 mm screws from the base cover using a T5 Torx screwdriver.

    • Slide the plastic opening tool between the base cover and the frame to pry open the computer.

    • Make sure the plastic opening tool doesn't go too far into the device.

    • Using either tweezers or your fingers, disconnect the black battery cable by pinching either side of the connector and pulling towards the battery.

    • Carefully lift and remove the battery.

    If you have the right tools, this is really straightforward to do. Took me about 10 minutes. The instructions are very accurate.

    Regarding the battery connector, the male plug is attached to the battery wiring (you will know what I mean when you look at it) and the female socket is attached to the logic board. There are small ridges on either side of the plug that can be grasped with fingernails to gently tease the plug out of the socket.

Conclusion

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

Take your e-waste to an R2 or e-Stewards certified recycler.

I have changed my battery and it won't turn on. I followed all the steps and the changing light won't even light up. My laptop with the old battery was working (only when connected). Not sure what to do next?

I replaced the battery…easy peasy….but now the icon for ‘battery being charged’ has an X over it; reads….there is no batter…but obviously there is as I type this. It is not holding a charge it seems. It only works if the laptop is plugged in? Any suggestions? Thanks.

Ria Swift -

Having the same problem. Replaced the battery as instructed - process was simple. However, the laptop does not recognize the new battery; I booted up plugged into the wall outlet and laptop saying “no battery installed.” I reconnected the new battery exactly as instructed and as the old battery was connected before. PLEASE HELP!

UPDATE: I uninstalled and reinstalled the battery… and now it seems to be recognized and is now beginning to charge.
