    Why is step 4 needed? The magnetic component doesn’t appear to be in the way of the battery replacement. Is the magnetic component just sitting on the posts (without screws attaching)? Will any magnet work to remove it? Is there any electrical connection to this component?

    There is no electrical connection, it is just sitting there. It should be removed so that it doesn’t fall out during the rest of the repair.

OK, the procedure seems straightforward enough, but you say “no parts required” when you actually *do* need to buy the replacement parts for the pieces that are no longer functioning. Where can you buy these parts?
