+[* icon_note] ***Here are the detailed pictures of the connector, which were requested so much in the comments***
+[* icon_note] The connector is closed, when the top of the black or dark part is at the same level as the thin white plastic part, which is fixed to the main board
+[* black] The connector can be opend very carefully by using a very thin pair of tweezers and pulling the black/dark part to the top, perhaps with a bit of very carful wiggling in order to get it of its slightly locked closed position.
+[* icon_caution] Be careful to only pull the dark part at the center of the short sides to the top, not the white parts, which are at the outer edges of the short sides
+[* icon_caution] Do not pull the brown/dark part more than 1 mm to the top.
+[* icon_caution] Pulling to much, with to much force or pulling at the white part of the connector easily risks to pull it completely off the main board without much force needed, as reported by many in the comments! Once ripped of the main board, repair of the connector will be hardly possible.
+[* black] At the open position of the connector the top of the black/dark part is about 1 mm above the top of the thin white part of the connector (see difference between 2nd and 3rd picture)
+[* black] The battery cable is inserted from the top and from the right side (see 1st picture). After opening the connector, it should be removed and inserted in this same direction and hardly any force will be needed for extracting and for re-inserting the cable. There are some white lines accross the cable allowing to assess its correct positioning.
