If you have a tape stuck in your Magnavox boombox or the heads need cleaning, you will need to take it apart. The first step in disassembling the boombox is opening the back. Some boomboxes have plastic back panels, others are metal. Both are held in place by Phillips screws. Once you remove the screws, the back simply lifts off, allowing you to access the components inside.
Instructions
1. Turn off the boombox and lay it down on the front panel.
2. Remove the battery door panel and take out the batteries. Set the panel and batteries aside.
3. Remove the detachable speakers if your boombox has this feature.
4. Locate the screws on the back panel of the boombox. Most boomboxes at least four screws, but many have more. The corners and inside the battery compartment are the most likely places.
5. Remove the screws with a Phillips screwdriver. Place the screws in a small container so they don't get lost.
6. Lift the back panel carefully. If it won't come off, it's likely you missed a screw somewhere.
