Introduction

Use this guide to remove or replace the two screws securing the iPhone 13 Pro Max display panel. These are the only screws on the exterior of the iPhone. They use a five-point design that is unique to Apple, requiring a specialty P2 pentalobe driver for removal.

    • Caution: Before you begin, discharge your iPhone battery below 25%. A charged lithium-ion battery can catch fire and/or explode if accidentally punctured.

    • Power off your iPhone before beginning disassembly.

    • Remove the two 6.8 mm-long pentalobe P2 screws at the bottom edge of the iPhone.

    • Opening the iPhone's display will compromise its waterproof seals. Have replacement seals ready before you proceed past this step, or take care to avoid liquid exposure if you reassemble your iPhone without replacing the seals.

    Are waterproof seals part of the replacement kit, if not why?

    I ordered the screwdriver for the 13 ProMax (Y000) as well as the full kit which has this Y000 head. Neither tip works to remove the screws. Any suggestions?
