Exhaust Fan: Dell™ Latitude™ CP and CPi

To remove the exhaust fan, follow these steps:

1. Remove the palmrest assembly.
2. Disconnect the exhaust fan power cable from connector JFAN1 on the system board.
3. Remove the (2) 12-mm screws securing the exhaust fan, and then remove the exhaust fan.

NOTE: When replacing the exhaust fan, orient the fan such that the fan label faces outward and the power cable is at the upper right corner of the fan (when viewed from the back of the computer). This will prevent the fan wires from being pinched when you reassemble the computer. Make sure that the wires are routed below the upper EMI shield.
