To change the Ensoniq SQ-2's battery, first take off the keyboard's bottom cover,
seen here.
Remove ALL the bottom screws except those that attach the feet.
|
|
Once the cover is removed, you'll see the Main Printed Circuit Board,
which holds the backup battery.
|
|
We need to flip over this board so we can de-solder the battery from the
underside.
The first step is to unplug two connectors from the Main board.
|
|
Gently rock the two, multi-pin connectors, seen here, off of their matching
header pins.
Notice that the backup battery is near the 10-pin connector.
|
|
Next, remove five hex nuts from the rear
panel jacks seen here.
A 9/16" hex nut driver is helpful.
|
|
Then, remove one screw (right) from the rear panel. It attaches to a
PCB mounting brace.
