Power down the Chromebook before starting any repair.
Remove the two 3.5 mm Phillips #0 screws using a screwdriver.
It is only necessary to remove these two screws to complete this step.

Lift the keyboard carefully. If you lift too quickly, it might break the two cables that connect the keyboard to the motherboard.

Carefully, disconnect the keyboard cable from the motherboard carefully by pulling on the blue tab of the cable.
You will now be able to replace the keyboard.

Step 4

Remove the two rubber feet of the back of the Chromebook using a metal spudger.

Step 8

Disconnect the USB cable from the motherboard by pulling the blue tab out of the cable.
Remove all five 3.0 mm Phillips #00 screws which connect the battery and motherboard.
