This section provides instructions on how to replace the power supply assembly.
To replace the power supply assembly:
1. Remove the computer cover. See "Removing the computer cover" on page 14.
2. Disconnect the power supply assembly cables from the system board and all
drives. See "Locating parts on the system board" on page 11.
3. Lay the computer on its side and remove the four screws at the rear of the
chassis that secure the power supply assembly.

4. Remove the old power supply assembly from the chassis.
5. Ensure that the power supply assembly is the correct replacement. Some
power supply assemblies automatically sense the voltage, some power supply
assemblies are voltage specific, and some power supply assemblies have a
voltage-selection switch. If your computer has a voltage-selection switch,
ensure that you set the voltage-selection switch of the new power supply
assembly to match the voltage available at your electrical outlet. If necessary,
use a ballpoint pen to slide the voltage-selection switch to a different position.
v If the voltage supply range in your local country or region is 100–127 V AC,
set the switch to 115 V.
v If the voltage supply range in your local country or region is 200–240 V AC,
set the switch to 230 V.
6. Install the new power supply assembly into the chassis so that the screw holes
in the power supply assembly align with those in the chassis.
