    • Slide your mouse's power switch down so it's in the OFF position.

    • A red indicator should be visible beneath the switch.

    • Unplug all cables from your mouse.

    • Throughout your repair, it may be helpful to lay your mouse on a soft cloth to stabilize it and prevent damage while you work.

  2. How to Open the Logitech G703, Heat the mouse feet: crwdns2935265:02crwdnd2935265:01crwdnd2935265:01crwdne2935265:0
    • The feet are secured to the bottom of the mouse with strong adhesive. In order to cleanly remove them, the adhesive needs to be thoroughly heated.

    • Heat an iOpener and lay it on the mouse feet for one minute to heat the adhesive.

    • Alternatively, you can use a hair dryer on the Low heat setting to soften the adhesive.

    • If you're using a hair dryer, only heat the feet a few seconds at a time or you may warp the plastic shell.

    • The feet have two layers—a rubberized one and an adhesive pad underneath.

    • If you're reusing the feet, be very careful not to separate the two layers or damage the feet.

    • Slide the tip of an opening pick under an edge of the bottom mouse foot, making sure it goes under both the foot and its adhesive pad.

    • If the foot feels stuck, apply more heat and try again.

    • Gently slide your pick farther under the foot and lift until you can grip it with your fingers.

    • Use your fingers to peel up and remove the foot.

    • Repeat the procedure to remove the top mouse foot.

    • If the rubber layer separated from its adhesive pad:

    • Slide the flat end of a spudger under an edge of the adhesive. If the adhesive seems stuck, you may need to heat it further.

    • Peel the adhesive off.

    • To install a new foot:

    • If any of the feet got damaged during removal or separated from their adhesive pads, replace them.

    • Use a spudger to carefully scrape up and remove any remaining adhesive bits.

    • Use isopropyl alcohol and a microfiber cloth to thoroughly clean all adhesive residue from the foot recesses. Allow the surface to completely dry.

    • Remove the feet from their backing and firmly press them into place.

    • Use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the four 5.4 mm‑long screws securing the two halves of the mouse together.

  6. How to Open the Logitech G703, Separate the cases: crwdns2935265:06crwdnd2935265:01crwdnd2935265:02crwdne2935265:0 How to Open the Logitech G703, Separate the cases: crwdns2935265:06crwdnd2935265:02crwdnd2935265:02crwdne2935265:0
    • Clips in front of the mouse wheel hold the two halves together. It's easiest to pull the halves apart at the back of the mouse before releasing the clips in the front.

    • Don't try to completely separate the two halves yet—they're still connected by a delicate cable.

    • Grasp the mouse cases near the back and pull the two halves apart slightly, so there's a gap at the back of the mouse.

  7. How to Open the Logitech G703, Unclip the mouse case: crwdns2935265:07crwdnd2935265:01crwdnd2935265:02crwdne2935265:0 How to Open the Logitech G703, Unclip the mouse case: crwdns2935265:07crwdnd2935265:02crwdnd2935265:02crwdne2935265:0
    • The clips in the front of the mouse can be stubborn and may require some force to release. Apply steady, slowly increasing pressure to force the halves away from each other.

    • Insert the flat end of a spudger into the small gap between the top and bottom cases, just above the charging port.

    • Pry the cases apart by tilting the spudger upwards to release the clip.

    • Remember, the mouse halves are still tethered together by a delicate cable.

How to Open the Logitech G703, Disconnect the interconnect cable: crwdns2935265:08crwdnd2935265:01crwdnd2935265:03crwdne2935265:0 How to Open the Logitech G703, Disconnect the interconnect cable: crwdns2935265:08crwdnd2935265:02crwdnd2935265:03crwdne2935265:0 How to Open the Logitech G703, Disconnect the interconnect cable: crwdns2935265:08crwdnd2935265:03crwdnd2935265:03crwdne2935265:0
    • Set your mouse down and position the top half so you can access the interconnect cable on the right side.

    • Use the flat end of a spudger to gently lift the black sliding tab on the interconnect cable socket until it's in the unlocked position.

    • You should feel the latch pop into the unlocked position. Don't push too far, or the latch may come completely off the connector.

    • Slide the interconnect cable straight up and out of its socket.

Thanks for this guide :)

It helped me diagnose the issue in my mouse and order the correct replacement parts.

One thing that I did find helpful is removing the ribbon cable before trying to unclip the top half

Simple disassembly guide that helped me out! I've had good luck with Logitech mice in the recent past with the adhesive pads on the bottom. I just set them aside sticky side up and had no problem sticking them back on. The clip in the front did give me some issue though.
