Disconnect the ground cable from the battery.

Press the tongue, see arrow in the picture, with a screwdriver. Turn the fan clockwise and remove.

To do this, press down the retaining clamp and remove the connection board downwards.
Installation
Place and clamp the connection board. The connection board should sit tightly on the case, otherwise secure it with a self-tapping screw.
