5)  Figures 3-76 and 3-77 illustrate the removal of the 2

nd

 CPU Fan Assembly. 

6)  Present the replacement fan assembly supplied by MaxVision support to the CPU and perform 

the steps described above in reverse order. Ensure the fan assembly in screwed in with equal 
pressure on all side and the fan power connector is replaced prior to powering up the system to 
avoid CPU damage. 

Main Power Supply Unit (PSU) 

Depending on the problem you are experiencing – and as directed by MaxVision support – you may 
need to replace the entire power supply as discussed below. 

1)  Open the display assembly into its service position as discussed earlier in this chapter. 

2)  Remove the video distribution board as discussed earlier in this chapter. 

3)  Disconnect the EPS12V 8-pin (4 x 2) power connector from the motherboard. Pull the connector 

up while using a flat-blade screwdriver to push the top of the release catch (facing the interior of 
the chassis) into the body of the connector (Figures 3-78 and 3-79).

4)  Disconnect the ATX 24-pin power connector from the motherboard. Pull the connector up while 

using a flat-blade screwdriver to push the top of the release catch (facing the bottom of the
