A Samuel of Manuals
Hi! I’m Sam and I am a technical writer at iFixit. I was raised in Lakeport, California where I grew up jumping bikes, shooting photos, and playing guitar. Not much has changed since then — I still do all of those things!
The first thing I learned to fix was my bike. Broken chains, wobbling wheels, and snapped cables were a common occurrence and the shop was too expensive for a kid. I had to learn how to maintain and repair my bike to keep it riding the way I wanted: everything moving perfectly with no rattles. Repairs were always difficult the first time but easy after that and eventually were effortless. Since then I have preferred to repair my own belongings using iFixit, YouTube, and forums to guide me. I love the feeling of accomplishment I get out of maintaining and repairing my belongings.
Working at iFixit gives me the opportunity to enable anyone to experience the independence and empowerment of being able to fix their own stuff. My mission is to provide information, guidance, and confidence to everyone who is motivated to save money, reduce consumption, and learn new skills.
Hi John, which kit did you purchase? We don’t sell a battery replacement kit for this exact model, only the part, so you’d have to make sure you have all the tools listed in the guide before you buy the part and add anything you don’t have to your cart.
If a P5 was supposed to be included in the kit you did purchase, reach out to customer service and they will promptly send one to you.
Unfortunately no, they are not interchangeable.
I recommend disregarding those instructions and following the steps in this article:
1. Charge it to 100%, and keep charging it for at least two more hours.
2. Unplug your laptop and use it normally to drain the battery.
3. Save your work when you see the low battery warning.
4. Keep your laptop on until it goes to sleep due to low battery.
5. Wait at least five hours, then charge your laptop uninterrupted to 100%.
I have not tested the JDS-055 and JDS-050 in a ZCT2U so I cannot guarantee it will work. However, visually they appear to be the same part made by a different manufacturer. I suspect that it will work, but understand that it’s a gamble and make sure the store you buy from has a good return policy like iFixit. If you can wait, add yourself to the notify list for the JDS-050 and order once they become available again.
If you tried to install High Sierra as linked on the last step, that may be why. High Sierra is only compatible with 2010 or newer models. Try following this guide to install a compatible operating system.
If that does not work, you may also try Apple’s guide.
The new enclosure should include these two Phillips screws.
I have not taken apart the speaker on the Note9 so I don’t know for sure but I think you would hit the speaker.
For the Si model, the filter is less conveniently located, but only requires a few extra steps. You will need to:
1. Remove the front-passenger side wheel
2. Turn your steering wheel all the way to the right
3. Carefully remove two or three tabs to open the plastic shroud directly behind the strut (try not to break the tabs, check for a center button to release them) using a removal tool (tools can be rented for free from auto parts stores, you just have to leave a deposit)
4. Reach behind the shroud to unscrew the filter (if you want to prolong the life of your CV joint, cover the rubber boot with a plastic bag to prevent the spill from touching it or just wipe it off as best you can)
5. Install the new oil filter following the same procedure below
6. Reconnect shrouds and reinstall wheel (don’t forget to use a star pattern when tightening)
*If your arms fit you might be able to reach underneath to access the oil filter. Try it first to save time.
*Use ~4.5 qts 5W-30 full synthetic or synthetic blend
*This will not work if you intend to use ramps
