Introduction
Follow this guide to repair components on the logic board. All you will need a solder gun and steady hands.
Step 1 Outer Casing
Flip the projector onto its back and unscrew the nine 15mm screws using the Phillips #0 screw driver.
Flip the projector right side up and unscrew the two 12mm screws on the light bulb panel located at the rear of the projector with a Phillips #0 screw head.
The bottom right panel screw does not come completely out the panel door.
Step 3
Using your hands, gently pry the top and bottom of the projector casing apart.
Step 4 Motherboard
Use the plastic opening tool to gently disengage the ribbon cable from its back housing.
Once the ribbon cable is disengaged gently pull the cable off the motherboard.
Once the housing is disengaged, the ribbon cable should slide out easy. Do not pull too hard on the ribbon cable as it is very fragile.
Unscrew the three 6 mm screws from the motherboard with the Phillips #0 screwdriver.
Be sure not to damage any of the wires atached to the motherboard.
Solder off all of the connections on the motherboard with a soldering iron.
Once connections are soldered off, the motherboard should be detached and ready for replacement.
