Battery sparking during removal, still stuck, what to do now?
I was following the Macbook battery replacement guide at MacBook Pro(13英寸,带有Retina显示屏,2013末)电池更换.
(Well maybe not exactly following, because I don’t have adhesive remover or an iOpener heater. And I also unfortunately did not read the part about discharging the battery closely enough before beginning)
The first two segments of the battery I was able to carefully pry up without too much trouble. On the third one it started sparking generated a bright light as I was trying to pull it up. I stopped prying and the sparks settled down and fortunately nothing caught on fire or generated too much smoke. But when I tried again to lift the segment, the same thing happened. I applied some more heat with a hair dryer to make the adhesive as pliable as possible and tried again carefully (outside this time) and started to notice sparking a third time.
That segment of the battery is still glued down, and I’m not sure what the best course of action is at this point. I could order some adhesive remover and wait for that to arrive, but given that there’s also a warning about the flammability of the adhesive remover, maybe it would be unwise to use it close to where I expect that sparks might occur again.
The other thing that I’m considering is that I should attempt to discharge the battery somehow before continuing, but I’m not sure if it is safe for me to reconnect everything and discharge it using the computer. I have read in some places about discharging batteries using a resistor or a light, but I’m confident in that idea either given that the battery connector has a lot of very small pins.
Does anyone have any advice about how I might safely proceed here?
Thanks!

You can thank Apple for not using a better method to hold the battery in!
