Use this guide to replace a worn-out or dead battery in your JBL Flip 5.
The model you see in this guide is the TT version. There are different models of the JBL Flip 5 that differ in their build and internal connectors.
This guide can be used as a reference when repairing other versions, but some disassembly steps may vary.
Check the first two digits of the serial number to find the model of your device. You can find the serial number printed on the packaging or in the speaker's leash bar cavity.
For your safety, discharge the battery before disassembling your device. This reduces the risk of fire if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.
