Nabi 2 Charging Port Replacement

Introducción

This guide will demonstrate how to remove and replace your Nabi 2's charging port. The charging port allows the charging cable to attach to the device, and over time the part may stop functioning correctly. There are many reasons to perform this repair, but the most common causes are the port becoming loose, and the device not charging. This repair involves the use of a soldering iron; be very careful not to touch the hot end of the iron while it is plugged in. It is recommended to document the order of the charging port wires before you detach them so that you can attach the new battery's wires in the correct order.
