Introduction

Go to step 1

This is a very easy repair to make. The only precautions are the weakness of the materials. The frame is very narrow around the battery slot and may break if not removed delicately. Removing the antenna requires pulling up on nodes attached to circuit components. Be sure to apply pressure near the nodes to ensure that you do not pull up anything but the antenna.
