15 - 45 minutes

Introduction

In this guide you will be replacing the microphone of the Jabra Freeway.

Tools

Step 1

Turn off the device before proceeding. Failure to do so may result in device damage or injury to oneself.
Remove the rubber pads from the bottom of the device using the spudger.

Step 2

Remove the eight 6mm T9 screws.
Two of these screws are underneath the foam padding. This padding is glued on and will be destroyed in this process. Poking through the foam minimizes the damage to the device.

Step 3

Gently lift the front panel off of the device and carefully rest it to the side.

Step 4

Remove the microphone from the microphone holding slot.

Step 5

Desolder the two wires connecting to the microphone.
Please refer to the soldering technique guide for instructions on desoldering and soldering.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

Based on my limited experience with this device, the component being replaced here is the secondary, or noise-cancelling microphone - not to be confused with the primary microphone. The other video showing replacement of the motion detector seems to be actually replacing the primary microphone.
