This guide describes how to remove the power button and install a new power button.

The old power button is removed by pushing the power button to the right, pushing up on the power button to lift the left side of the power button over the plastic ridge that was holding it in place, and then sliding the power button to the left. The new power button is installed by reversing these steps.
