Pioneer 3TM, 2TM manual Opening the Deck, Factory Repairs

Maintenance and Repair

Figure 22. Remove indicated screws from Pioneer 2- or 3-DX or -AT rear deck to open plate.

Careful: The computer’s hard-drive, fan, and speaker have attached wire harnesses that you need to relieve before completely detaching the nose from the body. We recommend unplugging the speaker wire and simply rotating the nose out of the way to access the onboard computer.

Opening the Deck

All the H8S-based Pioneer robots have a center hinge in the deck which let you easily open and access internal components without completely removing the top plate. Simply remove the indicated 3mm screws shown in the Figures nearby from the section of the deck that you want to access. You may need to first remove any accessories that are bolted to the top plate through the indicated holes.

Remove the batteries BEFORE opening the robot.
