  21. Remove the two 9.0 mm battery screws to separate the battery from the motherboard.

  23. It may take a lot of alternating before the connector comes out. Be patient, and don't pull on the cables.
  24. If the connector doesn't release using the spudger, use a pair of tweezers to firmly grip the sides of the connector and pull straight away from the socket.
  25. If you're having trouble, try rocking the connector side-to-side to loosen it.
