    • Open the housing plate.

    • Be gentle with the wires still connected to the logic board so as not to ruin the cables.

    • A fixed plug connector between the logic board and upper unit will cause some resistance. Pull gently but firmly.

Abschluss

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

If you do this - don't you still need to apply a fresh coat of thermal paste to the exposed ends of the two heat-sink posts (that separate when you open a G4 flatpanel this far) - my understanding was that the machine would overheat and you'd be left with didley squat!!
