Install the ESM (Alternate Configuration)

Before You Begin

Before you begin, perform the following task:

  1. Remove FMod0.

    See Remove an FMod.

  2. Lower the ESM into the ESM shroud, while carefully threading the ESM cable through the opening in the side of the ESM shroud.
  3. Connect the ESM plug to J803 on the card.

    Route the ESM cable around the retainer clip so that the cable will lay between FMod0 and FMod1.
