Locate the battery release tab on the underside of the G4.
-
Slide the battery release tab to the left and lift the battery out of the computer.
-
-
-
Turn the keyboard locking screw located in the middle of the keyboard so that it is parallel to the space bar. A half turn from parallel to parallel will unlock it. Another half turn will lock it again.
-
Pull the keyboard release tabs toward you and lift up on the keyboard until it pops free.
-
-
-
Release the tabs on each side of the RAM chip at the same time. These tabs lock the chip in place and releasing them will cause the chip to "pop" up.
-
Pull the RAM chip out.
-
Repeat this process if a second RAM chip is installed.
-
-
-
Remove the seven T8 Torx screws from the lower case.
-
Using your thumbs, slide the lower case toward the front of the computer.
-
The lower case may stick in the front on a tab just above the center of the optical drive. Be careful as you work the case off, or you may break the thin strip of plastic just above the drive.
-
Lift the lower case off.
-
-
-
Firmly grasp the plastic tab attached to the Airport card and pull up and to the left.

Remove the seven T8 Torx screws from the logic board.

Reassembly Tip: Reseating the logic board will be much easier if you use kapton tape to hold these five connectors out of the way until it is in place.
-
Caution: If taping the connectors back, be careful not to use tape with anything but very weak adhesive (i.e. kapton tape). Even electrical tape can pull the paint off the hinges when removed.

Open the display to a 90 degree angle. Rest the trackpad face down on your work surface and allow the display to hang over the edge. If possible, adjust your chair or worksurface height so the display will rest on your legs and the trackpad will lie flat on the worksurface.
-
Remove the four T8 Torx screws which fasten the display to the trackpad. The screw closest to the display data cable has a tapered head.

This walk through is almost useless: it makes something long and complicated out of something simple and easy. The only thing you have to take out is the logic board in order to access the back of the display attachments. The heat exchanger may stay in too. Just be careful with the screen wires.
Same here. This guide may be using imagery from the pre-A1025 model PowerBook G4 Titanium’s, which would explain this discrepancy.
