Introduction

In this guide you will learn how to replace your Asus Vivobook X540SA-BPD0602V battery. Batteries should be replaced every couple of years because over time, they will fail to hold a charge. All power sources, including the battery, should be removed before completing any repairs or replacements within the device.

Two top corner screws (12.5 mm)
Six case screws (9.7mm)

Step 4

Flip the laptop back over and open it, revealing the screen and keyboard.

Step 5

Using the blue plastic opening tool, wedge and loosen the seal all the way around the edges. Carefully lift up the keyboard panel.

Very carefully, remove the batteries with the same blue plastic iFixit opening tool used in the first tutorial. Focus your efforts on the combed hinge to the left of the batteries.
The batteries should all be connected to one another and come out of the device as a single unit.
Be careful not to rip any of the black plastic covering the batteries. Exposed battery parts can lead to explosions. If the case is ripped, re-wrap them, or properly dispose of them. Do not use them.
