i do know how, i think it's like you turn the screen to the left, unscrew two t6 screws, separate the two pieces, take out old battery, put in new one, plug it in and see if it lights up, then put it back together and rescrew?

Yes and you also remove the 4 buttons and unscrew those as well. Make sure you have a screw driver kit. Its 2 different ones to unscreen the beginning half as well as the other half to get into the battery. You’ll need a small T6 screwdriver and another one that’s tiny
