The GE PC Board DS200CLACG1AAA also features test points that can be used to test the circuits on the board. The board dimensions 2.5 inches in height and 5 inches in length. The screws are designed to align with matching holes in the board rack in the drive. When you remove the defective drive, note where in the rack the board was situated and and also retain the four screws and washers you remove from the old board. Use two hands to remove the old board. With one hand hold the screwdriver and turn it. With the other hand hold the screws and washers to prevent them from falling into the drive. If one or more screws and washers fall into the drive, stop the procedure and locate and retrieve the items. Any items left in the drive would be a safety hazard that might cause a shock or might damage the moving parts inside the drive. When you work on the replacement you must use a wrist strap to protect against the buildup of static. One end of the strap is wrapped around your wrist while the other end is designed with a clip that you can attach to a bare metal surface. This might be a bare metal surface on a workbench leg or support structure. Some wrist straps have a plug you attach to a matching connector on a workbench.
