Gently unclip and lift off the back cover.
My notes say that when I changed the SSD I had to use a Torque #5 for the eleven screws on the back … and that I had to use the correct torque settings for them when I replaced them.
I have the screwdrivers … anyone know where I find those torque settings for the back-cover (11) screws?
found them!
torque specifications: 1.85 +/- 0.15 kgf*cm
citation: Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro, 13 inch Display, Hardware Maintenance Manual
… conversion to “English” units … 1 lbf in == 1.15 kgf cm
so the above specification is equivalent to: 1.61 lbf in +/- 0.13 lbf in

This is exactly how you replace the battery. Would like to know how the author got the Yoga 2 Pro to recognize the battery as I’ve done the replacement per this write up and it went smooth, but the system doesn’t recognize the battery. Lenovo’s website is of no value and I can’t find an answer that works.
With my ifixit tool kit…the big black box, I can open, repair and close any pc, desktop or laptop. The fix went smooth, but nada on how to have the system recognize the new battery.

Where can I buy this trackpad? Mine is done.
Same here. Where can I buy the part? I cannot even find a part number.
I got a lot of different options on ebay but cannot rely on them. I think we could order it from IBM FRU parts but only by email or phone at:
