Brian, I was able to do my K3 (which has just about everything in it) by simply removing the back bottom cover, the rear fan plate and the ATU. I left everything else installed. Since mine also has a K144XV, I simply let fan plate carefully dangle while I pulled the old components out and inserted new the replacements. Although a vacuum desolder station was available to me, I just used SolderWik.
There are probably 6 different ways to do this, I'll pass your findings on to our tech writer. Thanks and 73, Paul alsopb wrote > > Did two of these today. One had a subrx.
