Lenovo N22 Chromebook Battery Replacement

Step 1 Keyboard




• Power down the Chromebook before starting the repair.
• Opening the Chromebook voids the manufacturer warranty.
• Flip the Chromebook so that the bottom is facing up.
• Use a Phillips #1 screwdriver to remove the six 6.6 mm screws on the bottom.
• Use a spudger to remove each of the 4 rubber feet.
• Use a Phillips #1 screwdriver to remove the four additional screws under the rubber feet.
Step 2




• Flip the Chromebook back over and open the screen.
• Wedge the plastic opening tool between the keyboard and the bottom of the Chromebook.
• Run the plastic opening tool along the seam between the keyboard and the bottom of the Chromebook until the keyboard moves freely. Several tabs will pop out.
• It is normal for the tabs to make a loud click when released. The corner tabs will be harder to release than the others and will make a louder click.
Step 3
• Once the keyboard is released, grab the two top corners closest to the screen and slowly lift the keyboard up.
• Do not lift the keyboard quickly or you might break the two cables that connect the keyboard to the motherboard.
• Disconnect the cables by lifting up the retaining flaps on the black ZIF connectors.
• Slowly pull the cables up and out of the connectors.
Step 4
• Lift the keyboard up and off the back panel, exposing the motherboard and battery.
Step 5 Battery
• Separate the battery cable from the motherboard by wedging the edge of a plastic opening tool between the black cable connector and the silver socket on the motherboard.
• Pull the battery cable straight towards you, away from the silver socket.
Step 6
• Use a Philips #1 screwdriver to remove the three 4.3 mm screws securing the battery.
Step 7
• Lift up on the tabs that were held down by the screws to remove the battery.
