I have a neato signature, have followed to this point removing every screw listed but cannot remove the lid. Every video I have watched shows the top and base coming apart easily. Can anybody help
There are two white paper seals and two more screws under them
There are two white squares covering two more hidden screws. They are just paper, or something similar, so just poke through with your screw driver.
After you take off the 17 screws (circled in the picture) in addition to the 2 under the tamper evident seals, there are 4 deep along the front edge.
There are two more screws under the white paper

Mine has a wire jumper that I can't remember where it goes. It appears to be an extension for the Lidar motor wires, but I can't say for sure if that's where it was when I took this apart over a year ago. I can't find anywhere else it might go.
were those common in these? or do know of anyplace else it might go?
Thanks!
This should be unnecessary. You should only need to remove the four screws from the battery doors. In this picture, the two lower-right screws are for one of the battery doors and the other is on the other side of the robot, under the demonstrator’s hands.

It is EIGHT screws, not SEVEN.
There are FOUR screws for the battery compartment panels (TWO for each).
FOUR screws for the fan access panel.
The panels are independent. There is no need to open the battery compartments to access the fan, nor vice versa.
