    • Don't forget to unplug it!

    • Remove the drawer and any remaining fries.

    • On the top side of the product there is a panel held in place by 6 very snappy snap fingers. I am not kidding, these are strong!

    • When you work on one corner the others can snap back in place. To prevent this insert an opening tool or other objects in the gaps you created after lifting a corner.

    • My metal spudger was actually bending under the force, this is normal.

    • Remove 4 screws on top.

    • Than just lift the top half of the casing. This doesn't take much force, as there are no more snap fingers.

    • Be careful, there are still 2 connectors attached!

    • Remove these two connectors

    • After unscrewing the middle layer of the product, turn it upside down on top of the bottom part of the product.

    • Be careful, there are still some cables connected to the bottom part.

    • Unscrew some more screws (10x).

    • With one hand hold down the fan blade to stop it from turning.

    • With the other unscrew the nut that keeps the fan blade in. You can use pliers or an #10 hex driver to do this

    • TURN CLOCKWISE to unscrew

    • Unscrew the screw keeping the thermal fuse in.

    • A thermal fuse should work like a piece of copper wire (electronically speaking) when not broken. It will have a very very small resistance between 0 and 1 OHM.

    • A broken fuse will give an open loop (O.L. on most multimeters).

    • Do NOT solder the fuse!

    • I used the clips attached to a donor fuse to reattach to the cables. I did this by bending the clips out using cutting pliers and than bending them back using regular pliers.
