Click wheel malfunction

Mein Problem

The click wheel stopped working, rendering the iPod useless. I read on Ifixit that the cause might be a swollen battery(old).

Meine Reparatur

I opened the unit using Ifixit instructions. With the pressure relieved, the unit worked fine. I ordered a new battery from Ifixit and installed it. Now the iPod is as good as new again.

Mein Rat

The best form of recycling is to repair and keep products in working order.
