Follow this guide to replace the battery in your iPad Pro 11" 1st gen.
If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.
This guide is written with an A2013 (Wi-Fi + Cellular) and an A2301 (Wi-Fi + Cellular + mmWave) iPad Pro. If you're fixing a Wi-Fi model, you can still use this guide—there will be some visual discrepancies, and you'll need to skip the steps related to the cellular antennas.
Some photos show the battery connector blocked with two card strips. While this is an optional method, it's more reliable to fully discharge the battery. Ignore this visual discrepancy as you work through the guide.

Extremely upset with this guide! It didn’t have me disconnect the battery first. When taking off the first display cable, the logic board sparked and shorted out, frying the whole thing! Not even my iPad which makes it so much worse.
