Introduction

If your Ring Stick Up Cam Battery (3rd Generation, model number 5UM7E5) is not powering on or operating correctly, there may be issues with the motherboard of your device.

Before using this guide, ensure that the battery for the device is fully charged and that the charging port is not damaged or faulty. If you are still experiencing issues with operating your device, your motherboard may need to be replaced. This guide will walk you through the necessary steps to locate and replace the motherboard of your device.

    Hello Yai! You definitely have to put some strength into it! I would take one of the black spudger tools and try to pry it off! There is some sort of additional adhesive you have to work through!
