Introduction
The entirety of the Moto 360 is very fragile. Take extreme caution when using tools. You will have to use the iOpener, so be sure to review this guide for instruction if you are unfamiliar with using it.
What you need
-
-
Set the watch face down on a flat surface.
-
Place the heated iOpener on the face of the rear cover to loosen the adhesive underneath.
-
-
-
Follow the instructions here to remove the back cover without force by using some needles in the right places:
-
Then continue with step 5. Or don't use needles and just continue with the next steps.
-
-
-
Gently slide the blue opening pick between the rear cover and the metal casing.
-
Work your way entirely around the rear cover.
-
-
-
-
Detach the copper ribbon connecting the motherboard and the display.
-
For reassembly, attach copper ribbon where it is marked.
-
-
-
Use the spudger to separate the battery casing from the rear housing.
-
For leverage, place the spudger in either groove in the rear housing.
-
-
-
Lift the black plastic pull-tab and pull back on the battery until it's removed from the battery casing. The battery is very firmly secured, so you may have to use a great deal of force.
-
-
-
Once the battery is separate from the back of the battery casing, disconnect the red and black wire by prying or pulling it straight up from the board (perpendicular to the board surface).
