iPod Classic Battery Replacement

15 minutes

Very difficult

My Problem

The battery held only about 5 minutes of charge. So either toss it or fix it!

My Fix

Great, until time to lift off the battery. Only took about 15 min to reach that point. Carefully trying to lift up the battery and found the ribbon cable stuck (glued) to the battery. Tore it. Now waiting on the replacement parts

My Advice

Be prepared for a stuck ribbon cable. Either some heat, have the spare part or ????
