Hi Sadie. It's complicated for me with the battery disconnector, I can't remove it. would you help me with that?
Hi @matiasurani. It looks like the connector is covered by tape so you might have to remove the tape first. The battery is connected to the motherboard by a press connector. Take a look at this guide for how to disconnect it safely. Thanks!
