      • Be careful with the small blue capacitors indicated by the orange box. There are many of these capacitors in the device.

      • Slowly lift the backside cover.

      • Both sides lift up the same way, but the motherboard is under one side and the battery is under the other.

      • Detach the four cables connected to the cover by pinching the connector clips and pulling the cables out:

      • Three cables on the motherboard side.

      • Two red cables with white connectors and one white cable with a white connector.

      • One yellow cable with a black connector on the battery side.

      • After detachment, you should be able to completely remove the backside cover.

Swagtron doesn’t sell the silver battery (even if you email them) I bought one from HoverboardRepair.com and it worked. Only difference is the small wire doesn’t come on the new battery but my hoverboard has worked just fine and I replaced the battery months ago.
