LG hombot robot vacuum cleaner disassembly

An unhardened hammer like a sledge will work. A framing hammer is much too hard and will shatter, along with the nail. They're meant for unhardened nails.

Interesting. It never crossed my mind that sledge hammers are not hardened. Good tip.

Hello Jan, It seems you had some experience with this LG Hombot..., so after you know how it was assembly, can you show picture or explain in more details how to open this device without broken it first. Thanks, Gid

This article and the photos helped me open up my LG Hom-Bot 2.0 in order to disconnect the speaker (which was always beeping in the middle of the night).

First I removed the red thin plastic cover: no screws, just plastic clip-on

Discconnected the connector of the "keypad".

Now 5 screws are visible below.

Then I removed the thin black outer plastic cover: no screws, just plastic clip-on

Now a 6th screw is visible below.

Removed 6 screws.

Now I had access to the speaker connector. There is just 1 speaker and the connector is easy to see and disconnect.

Now I have a silent LG Hom-Bot 2.0, no more disturbing nightly beeping.

Here are all the photos (in random order).

LG Hom-Bot 2.0 disassembly; opening LG Hom-Bot; disconnecting speaker in LG Hom-Bot 2.0; first remove 2 plastic coverings (no screws, just click-on); thereafter access to 6 screws in black plastic top.

Hi Jan,

I understand this is a rather old post, but you're the first guy I find who says he actually received the source from LG.

Any chance you still have it somewhere and could upload or send via email/skype/...? Might be a big help to me and my trying-to-mod friends :)

Thanks in advance, Clock
