Description: If your Turtle Beach Recon Cloud controller...

Steps:

  1. Use a Phillips #00 screwdriver to remove 7 screws from the back casing.
  2. The 2 inner screws are hidden under the Turtle Beach sticker.
  3. 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.

  5. Use the iFixit opening tool to wedge it between the inner grip and the casing to pry it off.
  6. Do the same to the other inner grip.
  7. Do not take off the outer grips as they have wiring attached to them.

  11. Insert a spudger between the controller and the battery pack.
  12. Use the spudger to loosen the battery from the motherboard.
  13. Gently lift the battery pack until just out so as to not pull on the wire attached.

  15. Use the point of a spudger to push on alternating sides of the battery connector to "walk" it out of its socket.
  16. It may take a lot of alternating before the connector comes out.
  17. 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.
  18. Don't pull on the wires as this can potentially damage the socket and device.
