How to Disassemble the RCA Cambio Tablet?
This Tablet is a great Tablet in terms of its ability to repaired you can easily replace any of its parts which you can find online on websites as Amazon, Ebay or find a broken one and scrap it for parts. To open the Tablet:
1.Turn the tab on its side and get the very small Philips screw driver and look for all the screws that’s located on the Tablet and remove them,there are nine (9) in total.
2.There are three (3) on the side with the power button,two (2) on the back towards the bottom,two (2) on the left side and two (2) on the bottom beside the connector for the attachable keyboard.
3.Once all screws are removed you will need a pick tool as shown in the video which is included in all Tablet and phone repair kits. Now use the pick and get into the groove that holds the screen and the case together its on the front of the device towards the edges. Get it in there and if you have suction cup attach it to the screen and while you get into the groves and move around the sides which will separate the tablet, carefully lift the screen away from the body of the tablet. Both halves should separate.
Pro Tip: Its always a smart idea to take a picture of any Gadget you open so later on you can refer to it in case you forget what goes where.
4.Once separated all the main components will be on the side with the display. You can now do a variety of things such as if your Tablet was not turning on you can try disconnecting the battery. Its simple identify the battery and then unplug its connector it should with a firm push separate easily. You can then leave it out for a little while and even hold the power button while its disconnected and then after a while reconnect the battery. The Tablet will power on again. I have use this to fix many Tablets and phone that will not power on.
5.To replace any other part is easy: To replace the speaker simply like the battery unplug in and remove the tape and it comes right off and yo can replace it. For any other component that’s connected by ribbon cable which is the other connector tip flip the black tab up that’s holding the ribbon in place and slide it out. Using this you can remove most other connectors. From here its easy to unscrew and remove the circuit board, battery or even the display and replace it with a new one.
