Open your mouse to clean its internals, troubleshoot mechanical problems, or replace a part.
What you need
-
-
Slide the mouse's power switch to the OFF position and unplug any cables.
-
Flip the mouse over so the feet are facing up.
-
-
-
Heat an iOpener and lay it on the mouse feet for about two minutes to soften the adhesive.
-
-
-
There are small gaps in the rims surrounding each foot. This is where to insert your tool when peeling up the feet.
-
-
-
Push the tip of an opening pick (or spudger) underneath the mouse foot, into the gap in the rim.
-
Slide your pick under the foot and lift to remove it.
-
Repeat the process to remove the three remaining mouse feet. If you're having trouble sliding the tool under a foot, reheat it and try again.
-
Use a pair of tweezers or a spudger to remove any large chunks of leftover adhesive. Thoroughly clean the bottom of the mouse with isopropyl alcohol and a lint-free of microfiber cloth. Allow the surface to dry completely.
-
Peel your new mouse feet off their adhesive liners and press them firmly into place.
-

Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the four 4.3 mm‑long screws securing the two halves of the mouse together.
-
-
-
Gently lift the top shell off the mouse up and flip it over the right edge.

-
-
Use the point of a spudger or a clean fingernail to flip up the small, hinged locking flap on the interconnect cable ZIF connector (located on the underside of the top shell).
-
-
-
Apply a heated iOpener to the board on the underside of the mouse's top half for two minutes.
-
Gently slide the tip of an opening pick under the cable to separate its adhesive.

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
