Step 5. Reassemble Logic Board to the starter. With

the display on the Logic Board at the upper
left corner, place the board on the standoffs
and attach the Logic Board in the reverse
order as listed in Steps 3 and 4 above. Make
sure the ribbon cable at the bottom of the
ASTAT is fully seated on both circuit boards
and that the ribbon cable will not interfere
with or touch the cover.

Step 6. Reassemble the plastic cover and the terminal

connectors by lowering the cover over the
boards. Carefully push down the cover until
the two tabs snap into place. It may be
necessary to push in slightly on the outside of
the lower plastic housing.

Replace the terminal connectors through the
plastic cover, onto the connector strips. Make
certain that the terminal connectors snap into
place.
