This guide goes over the removal of the speaker in a Lenovo IdeaPad 3-15ADA05. This guide should be used if you are experiencing any issues with speaker audio, for example if it is muffled, non-functional, or distorted. By removing the speaker to replace it, you will get a more clear audio sound.
Before starting this process make sure there is no damage to the battery, avoid using any metal tools near the computer, and make sure to stay clear of static surfaces. Make sure the device is turned off and has no windows or software running before starting the removal process. When you are doing this process you are removing the back cover of the Lenovo IdeaPad so you need to be extra cautious about water, or any substances nearby that could get in and be dangerous to the parts.
