To remove the audio jack board, see Figure 4-16 and follow these steps:
1. Remove the display assembly.
2. Remove the keyboard.
3. Remove the palmrest assembly.
4. Remove the system board rails.
5. Remove the DC/DC board.
6. Disconnect the speaker cables.
7 . Remove the system board.
8. Remove the audio jack shielding that covers the audio jacks on three sides.
Note that the shielding wraps around and goes beneath the system board
and the EMI pan, not between the board and the pan.
9. Lift the audio jack board off of connectors J16 and J11 on the system
board.
When installing the audio jack board, it is helpful to move the PC Card latches
out of the way. Put pressure only on the areas where the connectors on the
audio jack board and on the system board fit together. Pressing on other areas
may bend the board and break connections.
