INTRODUCTION
This replacement guide is intended for those who have a broken or
malfunctioning viewfinder on their Polaroid SNAP camera.
TOOLS:
- iFixit Opening Tool (1)
- JIS Driver Set (1)
Step 1 — Polaroid SNAP Front and Back Face Plate Removal
- Open the paper door of the camera, then locate and remove the screws that are on the top and bottom edge of the inside of the camera.
- Screw head: Phillips, Screw length: 3mm
Step 2
- Push the rear face plate from the short side nearest the screws you just removed towards the other short side of the camera. It should slide forward and unlock the clips holding it in place.
- Then it should be easy to simply lift the rear face plate up and remove it.
Step 3
- Locate and remove the four screws on the corners of the camera, they’re quite small and may be difficult to remove.
- Screw head: Philips, Screw length: 5mm
Step 4
- Once the screws are removed, flip the camera over
- Use a plastic opening tool to disengage the six clips until the front face plate can be removed safely
Step 5
- The cameras innards should now be accessible to you
Step 6 — View Finder
- Gently grasp the viewfinder (while in the closed position) with your thumb and forefinger. Then carefully pull the viewfinder outwards.
Step 7
- Once the viewfinder is out, a small black tab should come loose from the viewfinder. Insert this small black tab into the hole on the side of the new viewfinder, with the round side up.
To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
