Install a Fan Module
- Remove the replacement fan module from its packaging, and place it on an antistatic mat.
-
With the top cover fan assembly door open, install the replacement fan module
into the server [1].
The fan modules are keyed to ensure that they are installed in the correct orientation.
- Press down on the fan module and apply firm pressure to fully seat the fan module.
- Verify that the fan module status indicator (LED) on the replacement fan module is not illuminated.
- Using your thumb and forefinger, tighten the captive screw to secure the fan module to the chassis. Then use a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver to tighten the screw an additional 1/4 turn to secure the fan module to the chassis [2].
- Close the top cover fan assembly door.
-
Verify that the Top Fan Fault LED on the front of the server and the Service
Required LEDs on the front and rear of the server are extinguished.
See Server System-Level Status Indicators for more information about identifying and interpreting system status indicators.

Consider your next step:
-
If you installed the fan module as part of another procedure, return to that procedure.
-
Otherwise, return the server to operation. See Returning the Server to Operation.
