I/O Cooling Fan

This section describes how to remove and replace the I/O cooling fan, which is located in
the fan/speaker mounting bracket in the bottom of the front, right side of the workstation.
Removing the I/O Cooling Fan
To remove the I/O cooling fan, do the following:
1. Remove the top panel and the right side panel from the workstation.
2. Remove the PCI retainer clip, which is located below the power supply.
3. Remove all I/O cards from the I/O board and note their locations for reinstallation later.
See the removal procedures in the section titled "I/O Cards" on page 106 for details.
4. Disconnect the fan and speaker cables from the I/O board.
5. Pull on the fan/speaker mounting bracket tab that is closest to the internal chassis wall.

7. Place the bracket on a flat surface with the speaker vertical to the surface.
8. Simultaneously push both tabs outward with your thumbs while using your index
fingers to lift the fan out of the bracket.
9. Carefully guide the fan cable out of the bracket. The fan cable should not be threaded
through the card guides.
Replacing the I/O Cooling Fan
To replace the I/O cooling fan, do the following:
1. Reinsert the fan in the fan/speaker mounting bracket.
2. Position the fan so that the flow arrow points towards the I/O card guide rails.

through the plastic slot adjacent to the release tab for the fan/speaker mounting
bracket.
4. Align the mounting bracket to snap in place over the mounting bracket's housing posts.
Slide the mounting bracket along the chassis floor until it snaps into place. Take care
not to pinch the cables to the inner chassis wall.
5. Connect the fan and speaker cables to the I/O board.
6. Reinstall the I/O cards by following the replacement procedures in the section titled
