Replacing Rear Microphone

About this task

Before replacing a microphone, plug the replacement into the SRI (J31) to verify that the replacement microphone fixes the problem.

Procedure

Drive the LPCA and cradle into the bore to within 12 in (30 cm) of the end of the bridge.
At the foot of the table, twist or squeeze the cradle release handle to detach the cradle from the LPCA, and then pull the cradle by hand to the home position so that it is fully retracted onto the table top.
Perform LOTO on the PDU. See the MR Service Safety Manual, PN 5452735.
Remove the LPCA cover (four screws).
