  1. Ikea Bekant Controller Teardown, Overview: step 1, image 1 of 1

    • Since the case is glued shut, it needs to be pried open carefully (probably causing some degree of damage). To do so, pry it open at one point with a thin flat screw driver.

    • When the opening is wide enough, a chip card may be used, in order to keep the damage at a minimum.

  3. Ikea Bekant Controller Teardown, extracting the components: step 3, image 1 of 1
    • Before removing the circuit board one has to unplug the ribbon cable for the buttons.

    • After pulling out the saftey pin remove the white piece of plastic.
