    • Start by removing the silver plastic face from the camera using a plastic opening tool. Insert the plastic opening tool into the middle of each edge and lift up the tabs that keep the camera face on.

    • The seven plastic tab locations are marked in red.

    • Try using the plastic opening tool before switching to the metal spudger. We tried using the plastic opening tool to pry the camera face off, but found that it did not give us enough leverage.

    • There may be glue holding the camera face on to the housing. Be careful not to flex the camera face too much, or it will crack.

    • Do not try to pry near the power button side of the camera. This will break important cables inside.

Did GoPro make an updated version of the sensor, or are all the ones sold on the web just the same as the one that keeps failing in the cameras? Do you have a part number for the sensor that is supposed to work better? No point replacing the sensor with the same one the camera came with as it will likely fail withing a year just like the original one. Please advice.
