Description: If your Turtle Beach Recon Cloud controller...
Steps:
- Use a Phillips #00 screwdriver to remove 7 screws from the back casing.
- The 2 inner screws are hidden under the Turtle Beach sticker.
- The two screws at the bottom of the grips are countersunk, so you may need a 1/4" extender if your driver doesn’t fit.
- Use the iFixit opening tool to wedge it between the inner grip and the casing to pry it off.
- Do the same to the other inner grip.
- Do not take off the outer grips as they have wiring attached to them.
- Lift off the back casing.
- Insert a spudger between the controller and the battery pack.
- Use the spudger to loosen the battery from the motherboard.
- Gently lift the battery pack until just out so as to not pull on the wire attached.
- Use the point of a spudger to push on alternating sides of the battery connector to "walk" it out of its socket.
- It may take a lot of alternating before the connector comes out.
- If that doesn't work, use a pair of tweezers to firmly grip the sides of the connector and pull straight away from the socket. Hold the tweezers closer to the connector to get a better grip.
- Don't pull on the wires as this can potentially damage the socket and device.
