Zen Micro Headphone Jack Fix

Step 13 Replace the Battery, Battery Cover, and Case

Self explanitory, but:
1)Put the battery in in such a way that the contacts line up
2)Put the Batter cover back on
3)Place any case you may have back on
4)Test to make sure to unit powers on
5)Drink the beer you put aside
You're done now, yippie! Now you can go back to listening to your zen at un-zenly volume levels.

You my friend, are teh awesoem.just yesterday my Zen started doing this, and now I know how to fix it. My luck, it'll blow up in my face.... But that's nothing to do with your excellent instructions. Thank you!

It worked! I also found that there is another way to do steps 5 and 11 that don't require so much thumb power, at the opposite end of the battery slot is a raised edge of the metal plate a person could hook a thumbnail behind. Push gently on the faceplate, and with only minimal pressure from the thumbnail the plate will slide. To put the plate back in place, again apply pressure to the faceplate of the device, and next to the raised edge is a flat bend where the plate hooks into the case, that's a good place to push back to snap the plate into place. Also the retaining clips are not hard to place back in, I had the good fortune that one of mine did not fall out so I took some macro pictures for how to put them back in. Once the pics are on my computer I'll upload them if you like. And my earphone jacks works swimmingly, thank you tons!
