    • Remove the five screws around the camera using a Phillips #00 screwdriver.

    • Remember that we're removing the rear panel, so for this step, only remove screws on the appropriate side of the seam separating the rear and front panels.

    • The D5100 is held together by a large number of screws, which come in several sizes. Make sure to keep your screws organized so that you don't lose or misplace them!

    • Use your fingernail to gently peel back the black rubber thumb grip, attached to the chassis with a strong adhesive.

    • Use the Phillips #00 to remove the screw underneath the black rubber grip.

    Note: you don't need to peel it off completely. Peel it just enough to expose the screw. Afterwards you can put the rubber thumb grip back and it'll stick to camera body pretty well (looking as new), unless maybe if you've done this lots of times.

    • Carefully peel back the black rubber hand grip, which is attached to the chassis with a strong adhesive.

    • Use the Phillips #00 to remove two screws beneath the handgrip.

    When reassembling the camera back together, how do I put back parts attached by adhesive? Will they stick back on their own? Will I need to use some glue?

    Warning: these two screws are made from a different material than most of the other ones. They're quite fragile and prone to the screw head wearing out. You don't want that to happen! Make sure you use a good quality screwdriver and apply enough pressure so that your screwdriver doesn't "slide" and damage the screw head.

    About the rubber grip: most of its corners fit tightly to the surrounding camera body so it's mostly ok when you assemble this back. However, my grip's corners do look a bit worn out and not fully attached to the body, after several camera disassemblies.

    • Using a spudger, pry off the diopter adjustment dial cover and remove the screw underneath.

    • Be sure to remove the very thin cover from the dial, and not the dial itself.

    • The dial cover is not shown in this picture.

    • Next, using a Phillips #00 screwdriver, remove the three Phillips screws around the viewfinder.

    Spudgers didn't work well for me for removing the dial cover. I only ended up scratching it. What worked for me is a small sharp knife.

    • Carefully separate the rear panel from the camera body.

    • You will notice some resistance because the two pieces of the camera fit together tightly.

    • Be careful not to damage the chassis or ribbon cables. Use a firm grip to pull the two halves apart.

    Make sure SD card section cover doesn't fall out! I had that happen and it's incredibly hard and frustrating to put it back!

    • Remove the dark orange ribbon cable attaching the rear panel to the motherboard by flipping the black plastic clasp up, away from the motherboard, and pull the cable out of its white casing in the direction of the cable.

    • Using the flat edge of a spudger can help with this delicate task.

    • Remove the silver 16-pin cable by pulling gently upwards, away from the inside of the camera, until it separates from its port.

    • At this point, the rear panel is fully separated from the main body of the camera.

    This is the 40 pin cable for the display and reconnecting this cable may not be as straight forward as described !

    • Located on top of the motherboard, there are six dark orange ribbon cables. Flip the black plastic lock at each cable up to unlock the cable. Pull the cables straight back away from the white connector to release it.

    • At this point, the motherboard is able to emerge partially from the main body of the camera, but is still tethered by a few wires.

    There's actually 7 dark orange ribbon cables. One of them is already removed on these pictures. It's in the top left corner of the motherboard.

    • Using a spudger, slide underneath the twisted red and blue cables and gently pull away from the camera body. This will disconnect them from the motherboard.

    • Desolder the black, white, blue, and red wires that are fixed to the upper left-hand portion of the motherboard.

Thanks for the guide. I would not have attempted this without your help.

After replacing the main board, the only issue I am having is that the top focus point is not lighting up when I select it. It still works as a focus point, but is not light in the view finder as red. I probably did not perfectly seat one of the ribbon cables. It would be nice if someone new which cable controlled lighting in red the focus dots in the viewfinder.

Thanks so much!

Hey David, where did you get the new mainboard from? Know of any website that sells them? I need one for D5000. Thanks!
