Publicación muy esmerada y didáctica, gracias.
There was one huge step left out. On the T3i there is a fiber optic cable connection on the underside, top right hand side of the motherboard. If you don't reconnect this before reassembly your camera won't work. It is difficult to make sure both this cable and the adjacent white round-wire cable are connected before putting the motherboard back in place.
How do you connect it?
I concur with Albert Einstein. It was very difficult. This should be mentioned int the steps, not reserved for the comments!
Yes, 15 step. to make it easier to connect the optical cable and the second rear cable is better to remove the top cover
