Replacing a System Fan
1. If not using BIOS to determine which fan has failed, open the top cover of the
chassis while the system is running to locate the position of the failed fan. Never
run the server for an extended period of time with the top cover open.
2. Power down the system as described in section 6-2.
3. Remove the failed fan's wiring from the serverboard.
4. Remove the four pins securing the fan to the fan tray.
5. Lift the failed fan from the fan tray and out of the chassis.
6. Place the new fan into the vacant space in the fan tray, while making sure the
arrows on the top of the fan (indicating air direction) point in the same direction
as the arrows on the other fans in the same fan tray.
7. Reconnect the fan wires to the same chassis fan headers as the previous fan.
8. Reconnect the AC power cord, power up the system and check that the fan is
working properly before replacing the chassis cover.
