    Gereedschap gebruikt in deze stap:
    Phillips #00 Screwdriver
    $5.49
    • Use a Phillips PH00 screwdriver to loosen the four screws along the top of the back cover.

    • All screws in this device are JIS screws. Official iFixit PH000-PH1 Phillips screwdrivers are designed to be compatible with JIS screws, so they are safe to use. Using a screwdriver other than an official iFixit screwdriver or a JIS screwdriver may result in stripped screws.

    • The screws are held in place by locking washers, and will not come out of the back cover.

    • Grab the top edge of the back cover with your opposite hand so that the cover does not fall back into place.

    • Flip the 3DS over again so that the back cover is facing up.

    • Pull the back cover up and away from the rest of the device to remove it.

    • Use a JIS #00 screwdriver to remove the nine 6.3 mm black screws from the lower case.

    • JIS (Japanese Industrial Standards) screws are not the same as Phillips. To avoid stripping these screws, make sure you are using a JIS #00 screwdriver and not a PHILLIPS #00 screwdriver. You can use a PHILLIPS #00 with a lot of downwards force but be warned this will deform the screw head and you risk stripping it.

    • iFixit's Phillips head screwdriver is desinged to reduce damage on JIS head screws so it should be fine to use, still apply more force. Make sure it's iFixit's official Phillips screwdriver as we are unaware of any other manufacturer who does this.

    • Use a JIS #00 screwdriver to remove the 2.4 mm silver screw above the game cartridge slot.

    • There are still two ribbon cables connecting the mother board to the case, so be sure not to pull the lower case all the way off.

    • Use a plastic opening tool to pry the shoulder button ribbon cables off their sockets on the motherboard.

    • Remove the lower case from the device.
