X/Y Home Harness
The x/y home harness (rainbow colored ribbon cable) connects the x/y home PCB to the Main PCB at con-
nector location J3.
Replacement Parts Needed:

• twist-lock cable ties (available at most hardware stores in the electrical section)
Replacement Procedures:
1. Turn the machine OFF.

CAUTION!! Use extreme care not to drop metallic objects, tools, or other conductive material
on the Main PCB when you have the base cover removed. If you drop such objects on the Main
