Title	Microsoft Surface Pro X Power Button Cable Replacement
Introduction	Follow this guide to remove and replace the power button cable on a Microsoft Surface Pro X. '''Warning:''' Make sure to remove the SSD from the Surface before starting any repairs. This will disconnect the battery and prevent damage to the Surface. Applying new thermal paste to the CPU during reassembly may improve the performance of your Surface. If you wish to do that, make sure you have new thermal paste and either high-concentration isopropyl alcohol or a specialized thermal paste cleaner. '''For your safety, discharge the battery below 25% before disassembling your Surface.''' This reduces the risk of a dangerous thermal event if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair. If your battery is swollen, [[What to do with a swollen battery|take appropriate precautions|new_window=true]].
