    • Turn your speaker upside down and insert the plastic opening tool vertically into the slit in the front cover.

    • Slowly pull the plastic opening tool outward to remove the four clips holding the covering in place.

    • Repeat this process for all four edges of the front cover.

    Sometimes disassemblers forget that the first time they disassembled the item it didn’t want to give up easily: I didn’t like the forces I was having to apply at all, so I switched to two plastic prying tools per “corner” and one in-between them (total 5, you could use plectrums…) before I was happy the the forces were low enough not to break anything.

    There appears to be different versions of the Charge 3. If you find it difficult to pry open a second side the two small screws mentioned by Jason will need to be removed but it also indicates that there will be some additional changes to this tear down that I will try to convey in the comments as well.

    Sadly I damaged the latches on my charge 3. There was more to it than just prying the front cover up. First, there is a small latch on both sides that you need to push down before pulling the front cover towards you that release the clips holding the front cover in place. Pull only slightly forward because… Second, in the front cover there are 6 circular notches connected to the front cover in tue four corners including the middle corners, you need to squeeze the front cover a little bit gently removing the notches so they dont break (like mine did).

    Definitely had to watch about 10 videos and still couldn’t get it to pop out easily.. Took a look at the first picture in the next step and really took note of where the little hole that lets you through to push down the tab is. Once I took a look at that and combined the techniques I’d seen in some of the videos it finally popped off easily. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7i0_nD9... I only watched the first minute of this video but it helped a good bit if anyone else is having trouble.

    How do you know if the speakers or one of them is burned or broken.. i notice that one speaker is playing much less hard then the other one.. I wonder now if maybe there is another problem with my device.. Battery problem?

    Bonjour,

    changement de batterie effectuée ce jour avec ce tuto trop bien.

    J'ai utilisé une batterie made in china (8200 mAh 24€ ) et tout fonctionne très bien.

    Merci encore pour votre aide, sans quoi je n'aurai jamais essayer de réparer ma JBL Charge 3.

    Bravo !!

    • Pull apart your cover gently from both sides and remove it from the speaker housing.

    • There are screws around the foot of the device that may need loosening to be able to unclip the other side of the cover.

    • The inside of the front cover has holes that must match with their corresponding pins on the speaker housing for proper reassembly.

    • Removing the Front Cover does not affect the waterproof seals of the device. However, removing any further disassembly of your speaker will require removing waterproof seals and gaskets. Your device may no longer be waterproof after these have been altered.

    Include dissembling the plastic cover? cover?

    @KanGoon Yes, on mine it took the removal of 6 (reasonably obvious) screws to remove that. I’ll try to insert a photo when I reassemble…

    Very good guide! Pics and descriptions make this easy!

    There is a step missing here. How do you remove the rubber cover that covers the port?

    Gibt es eine Möglichkeit diese wieder wasserdicht zu bekommen?

    Furkan Karakelle - Responder

    Well, broke off the cover tabs. Have to remove 2 screws first. Might add that to the instructions.🤔

    Spartacus - Responder

    Me too. Saw the screws after I'd popped it off.

    It doesn't look fixable. Can't get the cover to stay on anymore. Ideas?

where can i buy a new front cover for mine? mine has got cracked

Cammy Innes - Responder

It seems there may be different versions of Charge 3 covers in existence, as when I opened mine (carefully with a slim screwdriver) I was presented with a single cross head screw on each end which was holding one of the ends of the cover in place. I could remove the top end at both ends, but had to unscrew these screws to get the other end off. It was easy, just deviates from this guide quite a bit!
