    • Insert one point of a pair of tweezers into a gap in the edge of the EMI shield covering the microSD card reader cable and connector.

    • Use the tweezers to pry the EMI shield away from the motherboard as much as you can without bending it.

    • Try not to deform the shield too much—you will need to reinstall it during reassembly.

    • Remove the shield.
