My iPod Touch (6th gen) battery swelled up, and I figured I would do this repair as a video.
I broken this up into two videos, or it would have been way to long. $15 for a battery from iFixIt VS $79 for Apple to replace the battery. Hmmm, let me think about that.

If you have not removed the screen LCD and digitizer then you might want to watch Part One first.
Part One:
The removal the the screen while testing and using the iFixIt tools so I can replace the failed battery.

Removing the swollen battery, and replacing the battery with an iFixIt replacement battery for the iPod Touch (6th Gen). The actual soldering and replacement.
