iPod 5th Generation (Video) Battery Replacement

Moderate

My Problem

Battery in iPod Video was very weak. I don't know why, it was only about 7 years old.

My Fix

Just like described on the website. I thought I was using more force than in the YouTube video but, it came apart, the same way.

My Advice

Be careful with the keeper for the ribbon cable and make sure the cable is all the way into the keeper before you snap it shut.
