Use a spudger to pry the back case off by working around the perimeter of the device, starting from the bottom of the 2DS.

Don't yank or pull the back case off because the camera ribbon is attached to the motherboard and back case and may rip or damage the cable or camera itself.

Use the tip of a spudger, an opening tool, or your fingernail to flip up the small, hinged locking flap on the camera cable.

Use your spudger to gently slide the cable out of the connector.

Remove the back case.
