Introduction
This guide is going to show how to take apart a D-Link DCS 936L Wi-Fi security camera and remove the camera lens using a Phillips #00 screwdriver and an opening tool. Don't fear! This is fairly simple once you get started. As long as you are careful not to strip the screws, it should only take a few minutes.
Tools
-
-
Place the camera upwards between your thumb and first finger.
-
Tilt the camera to the best position and loosen the captive linings using a plastic opening tool.
-
Slide the top cover outwards to separate the upper section from the lower lid using the plastic opening tool.
-
-
-
Remove the 6.0mm Phillips #00 screws that secure the back cover to the inner frame.
-
Lift the rear lid upwards using your fingers and separate it from the internal components and motherboard.
-
-
-
Unscrew the motherboard from the frame. There are 3 Phillips #00 5.0mm screws holding it in place.
-
Then (gently!) remove the motherboard and the lens with your fingers.
-
-
-
There are two Phillips #00 6.0mm screws keeping the camera in place. Remove the screws first.
-
Gently unplug the camera from the motherboard, and remove the camera.
-
To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

How do I get hold of a replacement lens? Can’t seem to find anyone selling them. Need one for a DCS-2670L
