Removing the control panel–eight hard drive system

Prerequisites

CAUTION Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that are shipped with your product.
CAUTION The display module connector is a ZIF (zero insertion force) connector. Ensure that the locking tab on the connector is released before removal and insertion. The locking tab must be engaged after insertion.
  1. Follow the safety guidelines listed in the Safety instructions section.
  2. Follow the procedure listed in the Before working inside your system section.
  3. Keep the Philips #1 screwdriver ready.

Steps

  1. Disconnect the display module cable from the control panel board.
  2. Remove the screw (located at the top of the chassis) that secures the control panel to the chassis.
    CAUTION Applying excessive force while pulling upward may damage the control panel.
    NOTE Apart from the screw, the control panel has three tabs (one on the left and two tabs on top) that secure it to the chassis.
  3. Hold the top edge of the control panel at the corners and pull upward until the control panel tabs are released.
  4. Hold the right edge of the control panel and rotate it toward the left until it is released from the chassis.
  5. Pull the control panel away from the chassis.
