Introduction |
As there is little to no information on how to replace a screen and/or battery for the Wahoo Elemnt Roam (WFCC4), I've created a rough guide based on my own experiences. I do hope that others will improve this guide in the future with more details and better information. | | Opening the case and replacing the components is not for the faint of heart. Especially replacing the battery, requires some medium/advanced soldering and tools. Also, there are no spare parts readily available. So if you damage one of the components, such as the mainboard, or ribbon cables, you won't find a replacement. | | I also noticed that using a battery with a (slightly) different voltage, i.e. 3.7 instead of 3.8 Volts, screws with the battery algorithm in the software. The battery runtime is the same, for me even better than before, but it shuts off when still showing a 40% charge. So just keep that in mind. |
