PSR-800: Taking apart

[AuntEnvy]

Hey folks ~ I see the detailed pics and description for getting inside the 800, once it's apart, but does anyone have the tips and tricks to actually getting the bottom half of this thing apart?

I'm trying to get to that stupid piece of tape on the bottom of the lcd that's been creeping up. I've managed to get the top half of it to separate but the bottom is not coming apart too easily. Any advice?

Thanks.

There are more screws to take out. Use a magnifier to get a good look

I see there are two open slots on the bottom where the battery cover slides over but I don't see where any screws would be.

If they are that small I guess I won't be getting this apart.

There are two screws under the batteries - one in the extreme right lower corner, one in the extreme left lower corner. Same screws as the external ones.

Ahhh, I did think of that for a second but hadn't done it.

Thank you scosgt. Now I just have to hope I don't break anything with the rest of this "repair".

Have you had the same issue with that tape creeping up?

Everyone did.
