Before You Begin

Before servicing the component, complete the following steps:

1. Power off.

2. Remove these:

   1. Top cap

   2. Front lower cover

   3. Front upper cover

   4. Cable cap

   5. Side panels

   6. Rear upper cover

3. Open the upper and lower door.

4. Remove HV DC input bus bar safety cover.

After replacing the components, reverse the above steps to complete the service.

 

Install the Long Cable

1. Connect the long cable's USB Universal Serial Bus-C plug to any one of the three USB Universal Serial Bus-C ports on the Control and Communication Module (CCOM Control and Communications Module).

   

2. Route the long cable's other connector to rear side through a hole at the back of the Power Link 2000 and insert the grommet into the hole.

   IMPORTANT: Make sure to route and tie the long cable using cable ties to the main cable harness.

   

   Reverse the above steps to replace the long cable.

   In most cases, card reader failures can be resolved by replacing the card reader alone. If the issue persists after replacing the card reader alone, try connecting the long cable to a different USB Universal Serial Bus port on the CCOM Control and Communications Module. If the new card reader still fails to operate correctly, replace the long cable.

Install the Cover with Card Reader

1. Connect the card reader's cable to the long cable before you install the cover.

   

2. Align and seat cover onto the alignment pins (x2) on the frame.

   CAUTION: To prevent pinching of the card reader cable, make sure that the cable is not between the rear upper and lower covers.

   

3. Torque the screws to 4.5 Nm (40 in-lb).

   

Reverse the above steps to replace the cover.
