Replacement Procedure
1. On the top side of the PNA, carefully position the grey flex cables so they can’t be pinched between the
covers and the rails.
2. On the bottom side of the PNA, carefully fold or push down the ribbon cables and wires so they can’t be
pinched between the hardware and the outer cover. Ribbon cables and wires must never be positioned
on top of hardware.
3. Reverse the order of the removal procedures above.
