Removing the Processor Fan/Heat Sink Assembly
NOTICE:
Do not touch the fan blades when you are removing the processor
fan/heat sink assembly. This could damage the fan.
1 Follow the procedures in "Before You Begin" on page 99.
2 Remove the computer cover (see "Removing the Computer Cover" on
page 101).
3 Disconnect the processor fan cable from the system board (see "System
Board Components" on page 105).
4 Carefully move away any cables that are routed over the processor fan/heat
sink assembly.
5 Loosen the four captive screws securing the processor fan/heat sink
assembly and lift it straight up.
CAUTION:
Despite having a plastic shield, the heat sink fan assembly may be
very hot during normal operation. Be sure that it has had sufficient time to cool
before you touch it.
NOTE:
The processor fan/heat sink assembly in your computer may not look
exactly like the one shown in the illustration above.
