+[* icon_note] Gently fold the display over away from the rest of the iPod, taking care not to disconnect or break any of the ribbon cables. Set the two halves flat on a table or bench.
+[* black] ***If your iPod has a black home button assembly rather than the orange one shown here, you can skip this step.*** The button is not attached to the LCD plate and does not need to be removed to complete the repair.
+[* black] Use a plastic opening tool to pry the home button switch up from the LCD plate.
+ [* black] It may be necessary to use a heat gun or hair dryer to soften the adhesive on the back of the home button. Always use a low heat setting.
+[* icon_caution] Do not attempt to remove the home button switch, as it is connected to components below the LCD plate.
