Introduction
Go to step 1 ↓This replacement guide includes instructions on how to replace the LED light located at the front of the DCR010, just under the control panel.

Soldering and desoldering involve high temperatures, causing potential health risks to you or those around you during this process. Make sure you are following this guide while in a ventilated area.
If you are new to soldering and desoldering electronic connections, please follow iFixit's Soldering Guide before beginning the LED replacement.
