Introduction
If your Anki Cozmo robot keeps turning off or the screen does not come on, follow this guide. This guide is to assist users replacing the battery in an Anki Cozmo robot, so it can come back to life. The battery, located inside Cozmo’s base, allows it to survive. Without a functioning battery, nothing else will work. Before beginning, make sure to power off your Anki Cozmo robot and disconnect it from the Anki Cozmo app.
WARNING: when using hands to remove any component, be careful not to cut yourself or rip your fingernail.

Step 9 should be operated while the arm is at his maximum height.
Step 9 is the hardest from far ! And you'll easily get hurt by your tools. Moreover, reassembling cozmo will certainly deteriorate it. You should operate the big part of the arm (the lower) while the arm is at his maximum height. To do so, disassemble the white part of the fork by prying it down. Then remove the 2 screws of the upper arms, and remove these arms. Eventually, the big arm is easy to remove (or to reassemble).
