step 1, open the mpu4 casing to reveal battery

step 2, get a pair of pliers or a piece of wire

step 3, place the plier or wire across the + and - at the same time

step 4, job done

step 5, put case cover back on and put back into machine

step 6, switch machine back on and check if it does the @@@@@@@@@ anymore

1. Pull out all the connectors. Remember where they go back in!

2. Two plastic clips on one edge of the plastic casing. Slide them both to the gaps. Hinge back the cover and unclip it from the case.

Edit: Then ignore my post, you must have worked it out while I was typing!

Check on the MPU for any sign that the battery has leaked.
