Introduction
If your Digiland DL718M tablet is experiencing battery problems—such as the device does not retain its charge for a sufficient amount of time—use this guide to replace the device’s battery.
Before using this guide, refer to the DigiLand DL718M Troubleshooting page to find out if the battery is, in fact, the aspect of the device in need of replacement (as opposed to the power cord or another component that could be causing your device’s battery problems).
This process requires you to remove the back panel of the device and thus expose the motherboard. Be careful when working with an exposed motherboard as you could damage it, if it comes into contact with moisture. It is motion-sensitive, and small aspects can be easily jostled out of place.
Before you begin, make sure to power the tablet off completely and disconnect it from any external power source.
