Xbox one WIFI card replacement
With
a plastic opening tool, pry the side vent from the console. Start from the back
edge and work towards the front of the console.
Slide
the black angled tab behind the silver button toward the back of the console
and set it aside.
Rotate
the Xbox and remove the warranty sticker from the back. Removing this seal and
opening the case of the Xbox voids your warranty with Microsoft. Use a plastic
opening tool on the back to pry the top of the case from the bottom. Use an up
and out motion to dislodge the clips. There are multiple clips to release on
the back and two on the sides. This step may take up more time than the others,
keep prying with the plastic opening tool and when you release one clip, wedge
something underneath it so it doesn't close again.
Carefully
lift the top of the case, note that there is a wire connecting the front panel
to the motherboard. Take care not to break this. Using a spudger, release the
ribbon wire from the front panel. The top case is now free, set it aside.
Remove
the speaker by squeezing the the tab on the black plastic mounting piece and
lifting it up. Carefully unplug the connector from the green front panel board.
The speaker is now free, set it aside.
Unscrew
the two 8.2mm T-9 screws securing the Wi-Fi board to the chassis. Using the
spudger, gently lift the antenna connector from the Wi-Fi board.
Using
a spudger and a motion similar to the previous step, gently lift the antenna
connector from the green board on the front. Carefully pull out the clips securing
the antenna wire to the chassis, releasing the wire.
Carefully
pull the Wi-Fi board straight up to release it from the chassis. The Wi-Fi
board is now free.
