Sony SRS-X7 Power Supply Replacement

Introduction

The power unit is obviously what powers your device. Without this you cannot use the device at all whatsoever.

Use this guide to uninstall the power unit from your device, then follow it in reverse order to install the new part.

    • For this guide, the faceplate disassembly is not necessary.

    • On the bottom of the device, you'll see 4 rubber pieces at the corners. Peel off these rubber pieces.

    • Unscrew the 4 10mm Philips J1 screws beneath them.

    • The black stickers between the 4 foam pieces are there to protect the unit's warranty. If you try to send the device back to Sony after poking through said stickers, they will not accept it as the device has been tampered with.

    • Poke through said stickers and unscrew the 2 10mm Philips J1 screws beneath those.

    • Insert the blue plastic tool into the corner of the bottom faceplate and slide along the edge.

    • It will be a bit difficult as there is adhesive holding the faceplate to the unit, but with it bit of playing it should come off with ease.

Hi I replaced my old battery with a new one (LIS2128HNPD). At amazon they say it is a replacement for the SRS-X5 but it perfectly fits in the X7 model too. Unfortunately the battery seems not to be charged (no orange led and the power supply has no load). Can anybody help?

Hi, did you fixed it? I wonder if it’s really the same battery or if you got defect electronics. :-)

I am having the same problem . I wonder if the charging board that is wrapped in with the battery will have to be swapped from original battery to new battery?
