July 29, 2011My third time replacing battery on ique 3600,
Let me address the one really bad review. I got the video with bolero playing and found it quite helpful, even though I’d done this before and had written instructions by the original hacker who figured out how to replace the battery. So, I have a bit of knowledge.
The leather cover comes out by pinching inward on each side the black plastic bar at the bottom. There are 2 plastic hooks that point outward on each side. Most people don’t use that I guess.
The other issue is that the left side rocker switch has to be carefully left in place, so you have to actually pull the motherboard to the right side of the case to free the rocker switch. I forgot about that too (I’ve replaced mine a few times, but each lasts about 2 years so I forget how). Then there’s the little ir red cap at the top, it has 2 little nipples so you can see (need some magnification) how to put that back in.
I actually dislodged the rocker switch and the spring flew out. At least I didn’t break anything. In case you do that too: There’s 3 parts, the plastic frame that with tweezers and 2 hands you can put that spring back in by holding one side in with your finger and using the tweezers to depress the spring and put back in the other side. There’s 2 little plastic retainers on either side for the spring. The circle part of the spring fits over a round pluglike piece of plastic. Then put the plastic back on the board, and the metal retainer fits back on top. Then try to be real careful when putting the board back in, put the rocker switch back in first, with the motherboard on an angle, then lower the right side of the mother board. Better yet, don’t dislodge the rocker switch.
The other item is the power switch. Use some black electrical tape on the outside to keep it from falling out when you remove the case. No biggie if it does fall out, it goes back in easy. But you will be putting the case on with the main unit with motherboard on the bottom, so the switch can fall out as you place the top case back on the main board. They show you doing it sort of sideways, but then the ir red plastic tends to fall out that way.
My problem was that the bottom set of buttons had dislodged and when I put it all back together, the buttons were being pushed all the time. I removed the case again and saw how they snap into little holes.
Then there was a small cylinder rubber thing that wasn’t in the video, but I’m hoping it’s a newer rev that covers some metal cap at the top. It fell out too, and seemed to fit over that. Seems like I got that right.
And since I have 2 iques where my other’s gps internal antenna broke long ago (but useful as a pda – and I have an external antenna too), I figured I might want to swap the backs since my working unit that I replaced the battery for was cracked and swollen. Funny thing, I didn’t remember dropping it.
Turns out the last battery I replaced was wrapped in air tight plastic and must have leaked or generated some sort of gas since it was like a blown up balloon. And THIS was enough pressure to crack the back of my ique. I took this old battery outside and carefully pin pricked it, and sure enough, some gas escaped and the battery shrunk down to its original size. I sure hope this new battery doesn’t do this too. Anyway, with the new battery, the case reformed itself, although there’s still the crack down the back. But all is working. I’m now going to buy another one for a spare or maybe replace the one in my spare unit.
Only after I installed everything did I discover that I hadn’t seen the written instructions that came with this. On reading, they do seem pretty well written, but I still recommend the video. […]
Hope this tail helps someone else with this still great pda / gps device.

July 29, 2011Garmin battery.,
It was great that product came with a torx screwdriver, saved me trouble going out to buy one. Gave my creaky old ique 3600 a new lease on life. Used for 2 days so far (&2 charges), no problems to report yet.
