Repairing Sony Cybershot DSC-W5 Speaker

Step 1 Back Cover

• Remove Memory Stick Pro from the card reader slot on the bottom of the camera.
• Remove both batteries.
Step 2



• Remove the single visible screw from both sides of the camera.
• Remove the two screws that are adjacent to the warning label, which is on the underside of the camera.
• Do NOT remove all four screws from the bottom.
Step 3
• Gently remove the back cover from the camera.
• The first time the case is removed, it will be stiff. Be patient and gently rock the cover back and forth until it slides free.
Step 4 LCD Screen
• Remove the two screws holding the circuit board down.
Step 5
• Detach the orange cable from the board.
• Use a thin object, like a paperclip, to gently pry the cable off the connector.
Step 6
• The LCD screen sits in two slots; one on the bottom, and one on the left edge.
• Slide LCD screen from the two slots.
• Do not attempt to completely remove the screen, as it is still attached to the camera.
Step 7
• To remove the LCD screen, detach the orange cable from the board.
• If needed, replace the LCD screen.
Step 8 Speaker
• Remove two screws holding down steel backplate.
Step 9
• Now, remove plastic plate that covers the motherboard.
Step 10
• RISK of Electric Shock From this point on, hold the camera by the chrome edges ONLY. Capacitors in the camera hold charge that will shock you even though there are no batteries in the camera.
Step 11
• Remove cable.
Step 12
• Disconnect flash cable before completely removing front case.
• Gently start to remove case.
• Once cable is free, set aside the front case.
• RISK of Electric Shock Avoid temptation of touching the circuit board while removing the front case.
