Procedure
Step 1. Make preparation for the task.
a. If the server is installed in a rack, slide the server out on its rack slide rails to gain access to the
top cover, or remove the server from the rack. See
b. If the server is installed with the security bezel, remove it first. See
on page 137.
c. Remove the top cover. See
d. Remove the air baffle. See
Step 2. Disconnect the VGA cable, the front I/O module cable, or both cables from the system board
assembly.
Notes:
• If you need to disconnect cables from the system board assembly, disengage all latches or
release tabs on cable connectors first. Failing to release the tab before removing the cables will
damage the cable sockets on the system board assembly. Any damage to the cable sockets
might require replacing the processor board or system I/O board.
• The connectors on your system board assembly might look different from those in the
illustration, but the removal procedure is the same.
1. Press the release tab to release the connector.
