21 - iBook (14.1 LCD 16 VRAM) Take Apart
Bottom Case
12. The bottom case fits snugly. Use moderate force to remove the remaining tabs from
the slots.
13. When all tabs have been freed from the slots, lift up the bottom case.
Note: When reassembling the computer, be careful not to pinch any cables as you
press the bottom case back onto the computer. Check that the bottom case shows no
raised surfaces and is fully snapped into place before installing the remaining screws,
sockets, and feet.
14. If you are replacing any additional parts at this time, remove the two springs from the
battery compartment so they do not fall out and get lost.
Note: When reassembling the computer, make sure that the two springs in the
battery connector are in place before installing the bottom case. Each spring has a
plastic cap on one end. The cap should fit securely on the spring, and the curved side
of the cap should be positioned against the inner frame.
15. Install the replacement bottom case, and reassemble and test the computer.
