    • Take the white cover plate off.

  5. rF4RpdBUKWSjTMhR

    • Using the plastic opening tools, pry open the camera from the bottom.

    • This may require a moderate use of force because of the sealing glue.

  6. aTxTT3Oh6uBGBDIt

    • Gently pull the connector away from the motherboard.

    Help! I can't get this connector back in place! How did you do it?

    Thanks!

    • Unscrew the motherboard's screws. There are 4 3/32" screws and 3 5/32" screws.

  8. T2eVmtrXIFZ2UiJY

    • Unscrew the lens' screws. There are 1 black 4/32" screw, 3 3/16" black screws, and 2 white 5/32" screws.

    This seems to be wrong. Only 2 screws connect the lens to the camera body - if you unscrew the others, you open up the lens and there is no need to do so.

Hey mate, what do you do after the motherboard replacement? Just turn the camera on? Do you need to do a master reset?
