Chapter 2 Chassis Service Procedures 2-9
▼Inspecting the Pins on the Front Side of the
Midplane
Note – This procedure assumes that a line cardhas been removed from the chassis.
The primary tool used to check the midplane pins is the pin gauge block. This tool
effortlessly slides over the straight pins of an iTRAC connector that is in good
condition. If there is any resistance, a pin is bent and requiresfurther examination.
1. Using the pin gauge block, gently insert it into the iTRAC connector at the left
end of the open slot.
2. If you feel any resistance to insertion, note the connector number on the
notepad.
