Remove the watch band.

Use a Tri-point Y00 screwdriver to remove the four 4.0 mm-long screws.
What if 2 won't come out?
Yes this step needs to be edited as the correct tool is y00 not y000. I think I stopped my brand new y000 before I figured it out.

-
Insert an opening tool into the seam between the back cover and the metal housing.
-
Twist the opening tool to create a gap.
That isn't glue holding the cover in place. That is the rubber gasket used to waterproof the device. It WILL get damaged and you WILL have to replace it.
Is there a way to remove the casing without damaging this gasket?
-
-
-
Lay the watch face down.
-
Carefully swing open the back cover by folding the back cover to the opposite site of the created gap.
-
Use the flat end of a spudger to pry up and disconnect the sensor flex cable from the motherboard.

-
Remove the back cover.

the glass broke on the back of my watch 4 and i have managed to get all the shards and seal out without damaging anything, but I am having trouble finding remplacement glass for the sensor in canada
It just suddenly turned off and won't turn on it just vibrates in sequences, i don't know what to do.
I am having a real tough time unscrewing the screws despite having the right screwdriver. It is like they are stuck on.
hello, I replaced the sensor but once I connect the flex cable to the motherboard it just doesn't work.
meaning that the sensor is not working (even no green light on the back) but the wireless charging is working.
I tried to disconnect and reconnect again but still no way to let the sensore work.
is there anything that must be reset softwarewise in order the watch can recognize the sensor?
Or probably the flex cable is not working properly?
thanks in advance
I am having the same exact issue. Did you ever find a solution?

Hi Grace, sorry to hear about the stripped screw. Fortunately, we have a guide with some way to try to get the screw out. However, some of these tips might not work for screws of this size. Hope this helps!
