Description: Follow this guide if your HP Envy 17-J013CL...
Steps:
- Lay the laptop with the battery facing towards you.
- Remember to disconnect the AC cable and other power sources from the device before replacing/repairing parts.
- Grab hold of the small battery slider and apply pressure to the right.
- The laptop itself will push the battery out for you once the switch slides all the way to the right.
- Pull the battery out and let go of the battery slider.
- Use a PH1-screwdriver to loosen the 7mm screw. The screw will not fully come out as it is held by a washer underneath but will come out enough to open it.
- Gently pull the back panel off starting from the battery side towards the back.
- Pull it back as it snaps out of the holding sockets.
- It is preferred to use both hands when pulling the back panel off to prevent bending it out of shape.
- Locate the memory stick inside.
- On both sides of the module, place a thumb on each of the metallic holding pins.
- Gently pull on the pins to release the spring holding in the module.
- Gently slide the module out of the memory slot.
- Pay in mind of the module's orientation as it will only go in one way with a little gap in the module to identify orientation.
