My Shearwater doesnt look like the pics. I followed the directions, took the face off, the two screws out and gently lifted up the electronics expecting to see a battery. NO. No disconnects for the board either. Under the electronics is a black flat plastic continuation of the case with the wires (which are soldered to the electronics) dissappearing through the plastic into apparently the next dimension. Now what? This is a brand new SW with only 3 or 4 dives on it. The display went blank and I would guess the first way to troubleshoot it is to change the battery.

In this case i believe your computer is not a GF but a Pursuit.
The Pursuit's battery compartment is in the top part of the computer accessable thru a cover on the right side. You can open it with a coin.
