iMac (Early 2006 17-inch) Take Apart — Logic Board 91
Replacing the Logic Board
Connect the power supply cable to the connector on the bottom of the logic board.
Pull all cables up and away from the logic board bay and gently place down the logic board
so that all screw holes are aligned with screw mounts in the chassis.
Replacement Note: The logic board should rest on the screw mounts without any binding
or bowing—if it doesn’t, adjust any cables that are interfering with the logic board.
Secure the logic board by installing four machine screws, and then installing three self-
tapping screws.
Connect all the cables.
Connect the optical drive ex cable and secure it with the ex cable mounting clip and
screw.
Replace the speakers.
Replace the display panel.
Replace the IR Board and connect the cable.
Replace the AirPort Extreme card and connect the antenna.
Replace the Bluetooth card and connect the antenna.
