JBL Charge 5 Battery Replacement

Inleiding

Use this guide to replace a worn-out or dead battery in your JBL Charge 5.

The model you see in this guide is the NT version. There are different models of the JBL Charge 5 that differ in their build and internal connectors.
This guide can be used as a reference when repairing other versions, but some disassembly steps may vary.
Check the first two digits of the serial number to find the model of your device. You can find the serial number printed on the packaging or underneath the speaker's connector cover.

For your safety, discharge the battery before disassembling your device. This reduces the risk of fire if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.

    • Before starting repairs, turn off your device and unplug any cables.

    • Depending on the model, some fabric covers are secured only by plastic clips, while others use both plastic clips and screws.

    • Begin prying only on the edge shown in the photos. Otherwise, you run the risk of damaging the fabric cover's clips if your model's cover is also secured with screws.

    • Insert the flat end of a metal spudger into the seam between the two halves of the fabric cover.

    • Push the spudger underneath the edge of the fabric cover without the textured rubber and pry upwards to release its plastic clips.
