Einleitung

  1. UERHctUAKiA2RrEl

    • Power down the TiVo and detach the power cable from the rear of the unit.

    • Wait 5 minutes for the unit to fully discharge before proceeding to the next step.

  2. 4JVVqHe6G4IwHAbQ

    • Remove the five T10 screws from the rear of the case using the Torx screwdriver.

    • Lift up and pull back the outer casing towards the rear of the unit.

    I have the TiVo Series 2 model TCD746500 and the procedure for replacing a fan on my model is almost identical to the procedure described here, with one significant difference at this step: first pull/slide the outer casing back towards yourself and only thereafter pull it up.

    • On the rear of the device, remove the right screw with a T10 Torx Screwdriver.

    • Unscrew the two black screws on the left with a T8 Torx Screwdriver.

  5. UwhqJU6ZunLYdylU

    • Disconnect the white ribbon cable from the motherboard.

    • The black base where the cable is connected is not part of the cable. Do not lift up on it!

  6. nVsHhHSILKCFM3Ek

    • Remove fan power connector.

  7. lPOVKWtfwLr1bijj

    • Disconnect the hard drive data cable.

    • Use extreme caution when unplugging the connector and do not disconnect the data cable by pulling on the cable itself.

  8. sCYkHDDqKweKTNKQ

    • Disconnect the connector cable that goes to the lights on the front of the device.

    For step 8, do not power on the unit without the front panel connected. Doing so will blow a fuse that allows for input from the remote control. You will not be able to use your TiVo if you do not have the cable connected during power up.

    • Use a pair of needle-nose pliers to make the two tabs parallel with the open slots.

    • It is recommended that you do not bend these back after putting unit back together as they may break after repeated use.

    • Pull the motherboard out towards the front of the TiVo unit, then pull up to remove it.
