It takes about 20 minutes to replace the fan box.

Procedure
1. Wear an ESD wrist strap or a pair of ESD gloves.
CAUTION:
Take proper ESD protection measures, for example, wear an ESD wrist strap or a pair of ESD gloves, to prevent electrostatic damage to the boards, modules, or electronic
components.
2. Remove the fuse corresponding to the port labeled LOAD0. For details, see Replacing the Fuse.
3. Record all the cable connections on the panel of the faulty fan box.
4. Disconnect all cables from the panel of the faulty fan box.
NOTE:
Remove the RJ-45 connectors linked to the COM_IN, COM_OUT, and ELU ports from the panel of the CMUA through the holes at the baffle plate on the ports, as shown in
