14 Servicing the Front LED Indicator Module (FRU)

The following section describes how to service the front indicator module. The front indicator module is a field-replaceable unit (FRU). For more information about FRUs, see Illustrated Parts Breakdown and Field-Replaceable Units.

Caution:

The front indicator module must be removed and replaced only by authorized Oracle Service personnel.

Caution:

Ensure that all power is removed from the server before removing or installing the front indicator module. You must disconnect the power cables before performing this procedure.

Caution:

These procedures require that you handle components that are sensitive to electrostatic discharge. This sensitivity can cause the component to fail. To avoid damage, ensure that you follow electrostatic discharge safety measures and antistatic practices. See Electrostatic Discharge Safety.

Follow these procedures to remove and install the front indicator module (FIM).

Disconnect Cables From the Server
Remove the Server From the Rack
Take Antistatic Measures

Remove the Front LED Indicator Module

  1. Prepare the server for service.
    1. Power off the server and disconnect the power cords from the power supplies.
    2. Remove the server from the rack.
    3. Attach an antistatic wrist strap to your wrist, and then to a metal area on the chassis.
  2. If attached, remove the left-side mounting bracket from the server chassis.

    Figure showing the left-side mounting bracket being removed from the server chassis.
    1. Lift up on the mounting bracket clip to disengage the clip from the chassis locating pin.
    2. Pull the mounting bracket toward the rear of the chassis until all five chassis locating pins protrude through the five keyhole openings in the mounting bracket.
    3. Lift the mounting bracket off the locating pins and set it aside.
  3. Using a Philips screwdriver, remove the two screws that secure the front indicator module (FIM) assembly to the server chassis [1].

    Figure showing how to remove the front indicator module (FIM) from the server.
  4. Carefully slide the FIM assembly toward the front of the server to remove it from the chassis [2].
  5. Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the two screws that secure the plastic temperature sensor housing to the FIM assembly, and then detach the housing from the FIM assembly [2].

    Note:

    You do not need to remove the temperature sensor from the housing.
  6. Disconnect the FIM cable from the FIM assembly and set the FIM assembly aside [3].
  7. Continue to Install the Front LED Indicator Module.

Install the Front LED Indicator Module

  1. Attach an antistatic wrist strap to your wrist, and then to a metal area on the chassis.
  2. Unpack the replacement FIM and place it on an antistatic mat.
  3. If not installed, install the FIM cable through the plastic temperature sensor housing [1].

    Figure showing how to install the front indicator module (FIM) into the server.
  4. Connect the FIM cable to the replacement FIM assembly [1, 2].
  5. Using a Phillips screwdriver, tighten the two screws to secure the temperature sensor housing to the FIM assembly [2].
  6. Carefully insert the FIM assembly into the front panel of the server chassis [3].
  7. Install and tighten the two Phillips screws to secure the FIM assembly to the server chassis [3].
  8. (Optional) If required, reattach the left-side mounting bracket to the server chassis.

    Figure showing the left-side mounting bracket being installed on to the server chassis.
    1. Position the mounting bracket against the chassis so that the five keyhole openings on the mounting bracket are aligned with the five locating pins on the side of the chassis.
    2. When the heads of the five chassis locating pins protrude through the five keyhole openings in the mounting bracket, pull the mounting bracket toward the front of the chassis until the mounting bracket clip locks into place with an audible click.
    3. Verify that the locating pin is engaged with the mounting bracket clip.
  9. Return the server to operation.
    1. Reinstall the server into the rack.
    2. Reconnect the power cords to the power supplies, and power on the server.
    3. Verify that the System OK status indicator is lit.
