## Remove a Fan Module

Note - This is a hot service procedure that can be performed by customers. See Hot Service, Replaceable by Customer for more information about hot service procedures.

| Caution - Do not remove a fan module until you have a replacement unit ready for installation. The server may be run for the time it takes to remove and install a fan module, but the fan door must not be open for more than 60 seconds.

1. Extend the server to the maintenance position.

   See Extend the Server.

2. Release the two fan compartment door latches and swing the door open.
3. Check the fan status LEDs to determine which fan module or modules need to be replaced.

   An amber LED identifies the faulty fan module.

4. To remove a fan module, grasp the pull tab, pull the module toward the front of the system, and then lift it up and out of the fan module compartment.
5. Check to be certain adjacent fan modules are still fully seated.

   You can do this by pressing down on the top of the neighboring fan modules.

   | Caution - If you will not be able to install a new fan module within one minute, power down the system. See Removing Power From the System.
