This guide shows how to remove and replace the power button and LED board for your Meta Quest 2.
The power button and power LED are mounted on a small, modular board.
The procedure requires extensive disassembly of your headset. If your battery is worn, consider taking this opportunity to replace it—it's normally hard to reach but is easily accessible during this repair.
Note: You'll need a long PH00 bit or a dedicated PH00 screwdriver to remove some recessed screws.
