Replace the Logic Board in an iPod Video
To replace the logic board in a fifth-generation iPod:
1. Open the iPod according to the instructions in Chapter 3.
2. At the bottom of the unit, find and disconnect the ribbon cable from the battery (see
Figure 9-28). There is a brown clip that you can pull up to make the cable easier to
remove. Be gentle with this clip, because it can pop off.

also has a brown clip that works like the one in step 2.
4. Carefully lift the hard drive and rotate it out of the iPod casing, disconnect it using the
black clip (which works just like the brown clips from the previous steps), and remove it
(see Figure 9-30).
