This guide will teach you how to replace the motherboard in your Moto G, in the event that it is malfunctioning. It may take a while, since the battery and SD/SIM card reader must be removed first, but all you will need are a T5 Torx screwdriver and a plastic opening tool.
Before you begin, download the Software Fix app to backup your device and diagnose whether your problem is software or hardware related.

There's no need to remove the battery or motherboard to get to the speakers - they are accessible as soon as the back cover is removed. Skip this step and jump straight to step 10
In fact it is not necessary to remove the simcard rack. I managed to remove battery with the rack on. It is possible to remove the foil startingfrom the bottom of the battery and once peeled off the battery can be removed. You only need to disconnect the battery from the mother board.

Using a plastic opening tool, carefully pry off the entire SIM/SD card reader component.
As mentioned in a comment on the previous step, you don’t actually need to remove the SIM/SD card reader at all.
If you peel back the copper foil from the opposite end of the device, you can sneak the battery out (and the new battery in) by just sliding the battery ribbon cable out from under the SIM/SD card reader.
Thx for the idea. I’ll let you know if it was working - I’ll my battery soon. regards!
Perfect as mentioned - just slide the cable foil under the sim rack - no need to remove the rack. Works flawlessly, quick repair.

Peel off the two black stickers on the right side of the battery using your fingers.
-
Remove the battery by pulling the right side of it upwards.
HINT: The ‘two black stickers’ are the ends of the two parallel adhesive strips which hold the battery in. There is no other adhesive holding the battery, so focus your attention on these regions when prying the battery out!
If the copper foil is damaged beyond repair, what can be used to replace it?
