This guide will help show you how to replace the mother board on the iHealth Edge. You must take the device and remove the two piece that are stuck together using a blow dryer. This will expose the inside of the device to see screen. This is where we will begin to learn how to replace the motherboard.

Remove the word help in the first sentence. The guide will show you how to replace the mother board.

Following is a partial description of what needs to be on the device page. This is copied from the iFixit web site. I don’t think you’ve met these requirements.

-Includes thorough information describing the device and its background information to educate readers and aid them in identifying their device

-Lists at least three helpful, properly formatted links on the device page

On Motherboard replacement guide, the last step is not needed.

How many wires need to be desoldered? If its more than one, you should give the number. Example: Use a soldering iron to remove 2 wires.

Looks good. I’m impressed. Lets see what iFixit says.
