    • Separate the resonator portion from the base of device to reveal the middle separator of the enclosure. The enclosure will now be in two pieces.

    • Hold the resonator portion of the enclosure gently aside to make sure there is no tension on the black and red wires coming from the bottom portion of the device.

    • Excessive force may disconnect the black and red speaker wires from the circuitry in the bottom portion of the device.

    • Desolder both wired connections.

    • Once the solder has melted, the wires should be easily pulled off the circuit board.

    • Be sure to connect the black wire to SPK- and the red wire to SPK+ when soldering the wires back onto the circuit board.

Conclusion

Test the speaker once you’ve reassembled it. Sound should now play properly on your Kinivo ZX100 Mini Portable Speaker.
