Use this guide to remove or replace the vibration motor in your Google Pixel Watch.
For your safety, discharge the battery below 25% before disassembling your device. This reduces the risk of fire if the battery is accidentally damaged during the repair. If your battery is swollen, take appropriate precautions.
You’ll need replacement adhesive to reattach the screen when reassembling the device.
Retaining water resistance after the repair will depend on how precisely the adhesive is reapplied, but your device will lose its IP (Ingress Protection) rating.
Note: This guide was written using a GBZ4S LTE model. If you have the non-LTE version, you can still use this guide—but there might be slight visual discrepancies.
