The motherboard is responsible for all the processing required to turn the touch input from the touchpad into the digital drawing produced on the screen. If you are having any glitches or issues with the functionality of your device, this guide will show you how to replace the motherboard in the Wacom Intuos Pro. The motherboard also houses the charging port, so a replacement of this component may alleviate an inability to charge in your device.
You will need to be able to use a soldering iron to complete this guide, so please refer to this soldering guide for help.

Orient the device so the bottom casing is facing upwards.
-
Use your fingers to gently pull on the rubber covers on the bottom of the device to remove them.
-
-
-
Remove the four 4mm screws from underneath the rubber feet using a Phillips #00 screwdriver.
I think the photos are slightly too zoomed in here. Also, the shots should be taken from the first person perspective. Note that screwdriver is one word.

-
Insert the iFixit Opening Tool between the front and back cover of the device in order to snap and separate the type locks from around the edges.
-
Use the iFixit Opening Tool all the way around the edges until all the snaps have been released.
Make sure to use the first-person perspective and end punctuation on all steps. How should I use the plastic tool? Be sure to be specific. I would also add one final shot of the case being removed.

-
Remove the case backing from the rear of the device with your hands so the internal components are exposed.
Add picture with removing the case.
See previous comment.

-
If not already done, desolder the three colored cables that connect the battery to the motherboard.
-
After desoldering the battery, carefully remove it.
Add flip book style shots here so that it’s clear how to do this.
See previous feedback here. If you need it, we have a soldering iron in the studio you can use, but you’ll have to make an appointment. I would also use markup to show where this component is.
But where's the link to source the battery?

The white balance here is off. I would also indicate the end goal of pulling off the adhesive (e.g., to remove it).
