4 Removal and replacement procedures Preliminary replacement requirements Tools required You will need the following tools to complete the removal and replacement procedures: ● Flat-bladed screwdriver ● Magnetic screwdriver ● Phillips P0 and P1 screwdrivers ● Torx T8 screwdriver Service considerations The following sections include some of the considerations that you must keep in mind during disassembly and assembly procedures.
Cables and connectors CAUTION: When servicing the computer, be sure that cables are placed in their proper locations during the reassembly process. Improper cable placement can damage the computer. Cables must be handled with extreme care to avoid damage. Apply only the tension required to unseat or seat the cables during removal and insertion. Handle cables by the connector whenever possible. In all cases, avoid bending, twisting, or tearing cables.
Grounding guidelines Electrostatic discharge damage Electronic components are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Circuitry design and structure determine the degree of sensitivity. Networks built into many integrated circuits provide some protection, but in many cases, ESD contains enough power to alter device parameters or melt silicon junctions. A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor can destroy static-sensitive devices or microcircuitry.
Packaging and transporting guidelines Follow these grounding guidelines when packaging and transporting equipment: ● To avoid hand contact, transport products in static-safe tubes, bags, or boxes. ● Protect ESD-sensitive parts and assemblies with conductive or approved containers or packaging. ● Keep ESD-sensitive parts in their containers until the parts arrive at static-free workstations. ● Place items on a grounded surface before removing items from their containers.
Equipment guidelines Grounding equipment must include either a wrist strap or a foot strap at a grounded workstation. ● When seated, wear a wrist strap connected to a grounded system. Wrist straps are flexible straps with a minimum of one megohm ±10% resistance in the ground cords. To provide proper ground, wear a strap snugly against the skin at all times. On grounded mats with banana-plug connectors, use alligator clips to connect a wrist strap.
Component replacement procedures This section provides removal and replacement procedures. There are many screws, in many different sizes, that must be removed, replaced, or loosened when servicing the computer. Make special note of each screw size and location during removal and replacement.
Computer feet The computer feet are adhesive-backed rubber pads. The feet are included in the Rubber Kit, spare part number 605789-001 for 33.8-cm (13.3-in) and 35.6-cm (14.0-in) computers and in Rubber Kit 608931-001 for 39.6-cm (15.6-in) computers. There are 4 rubber feet that attach to the base enclosure in the locations illustrated below.
Battery Description Spare part number 9-cell, 93-Wh, 2.8-Ah Li-on battery 593573-001 6-cell, 47-Wh, 2.2-Ah Li-on battery 593572-001 Before disassembling the computer, follow these steps: 1. Shut down the computer. If you are unsure whether the computer is off or in Hibernation, turn the computer on, and then shut it down through the operating system. 2. Disconnect all external devices connected to the computer. 3.
Service door Description Spare part number For use in computers with 39.6-cm (15.6-in) displays 605785-001 For use in computers with 35.6-cm (14-in) and 33.8-cm (13.3-in) displays 605784-001 Before removing the service door follow these steps: 1. Shut down the computer. If you are unsure whether the computer is off or in Hibernation, turn the computer on, and then shut it down through the operating system. 2. Disconnect all external devices connected to the computer. 3.
2. Slide the service door (2) away from the computer. Reverse this procedure to install the service door.
Hard drive NOTE: The hard drive spare part kit includes a hard drive bracket, four mounting screws, and the necessary rubber/foam bumpers. Description Spare part number 500-GB, 7200-rpm (replaces 614958-0010 608139-001 500-GB, 7200-rpm hard drive for use in computers with 39.6-cm (15.6-in) displays (replaces 614523-001) 611029-001 320-GB, 7200-rpm hard drive (replaces 614957-001) 608138-001 320-GB, 7200-rpm hard drive for use in computers with 39.6-cm (15.
4. Remove the battery (see Battery on page 51). 5. Remove the service door (see Service door on page 52). Remove the hard drive from a 39.6-cm (15.6-in) computer: 1. Position the computer right-side up with the front toward you. 2. Remove the two Phillips PM2.5×6.0 screws (1) and loosen the Phillips PM2.5×11.0 captive screw (2) that secure the hard drive to the computer. 3. Grasp the mylar tab on the hard drive and slide the hard drive (3) to the left to disconnect it from the system board. 4.
4. Remove the hard drive (4) from the hard drive bay. To remove the hard drive bracket, follow these steps: 1. If it is necessary to replace the hard drive bracket, remove the two Phillips PM3.0×4.0 hard drive bracket screws (1) from each side of the hard drive. 2. Lift the bracket (2) straight up to remove it from the hard drive. It is necessary to attach rubber or foam bumpers to drives and/or hard drive brackets before installing them in the computer.
For a 39.6-cm (15.6-in) computer using a 9.5mm thick hard drive, attach 2 pieces of 15×5×3mm rubber from spares kit 652169-001 to the hard drive. For a 39.6-cm (15.6-in) computer using a 7.0mm thick hard drive, attach 2 pieces of 12×5.5×7mm rubber from spares kit 652169-001 to the hard drive. For a 35.6-cm (14-in) or 33.8-cm (13.3-in) computer, attach 1 piece of the 90× 8×0.5 mm rubber bumper from spares kit 652168-001 to the outside of the hard drive bracket.
For a 35.6-cm (14-in) or 33.8-cm (13.3-in) computers using 7 mm thich hard drives, attach 2 pieces of 13×9.5×3.1 mm rubber bumper from spares kit 652168-001 to the hard drive. After the rubber or foam bumpers have been attached, reverse the removal procedure to install the hard drive.
