    2 min

    Set the new charging port sub-board into its designated recess at the bottom of the frame and press lightly until it rests flush.

    Reconnect the antenna coaxial cable

    1 min

    Align the antenna cable connector head precisely over its board socket and press down vertically until it snaps into place.

16. 16

    Reconnect the main interconnect cable

    1 min

    Align the main flex connector over the new board's socket and press straight down until you feel a firm click.
