Removing and Replacing Parts : Dell Latitude C600/C500 Series Service Manual
Apply pressure to the latch and spring while unsnapping the snap tabs to prevent the latch assembly
from coming loose from the case. If the latch assembly does come loose from the case:
a. Reinsert the spring onto the slider on the latch, and reinstall the module latch into the
holding features on the inside of the case.
b. Ensure that the slider is inserted in its respective hole, that the side of the latch with the two
bumps is facing the back of the case, and that the surface with the wear ribs is facing the
bottom of the case.
NOTE: The latch will not function properly if the slider is oriented incorrectly.
7. Snap in the new latch button from the bottom of the base, making certain the snap tabs are fully
engaged in the latch.
8. Ensure that the newly installed latch moves smoothly and freely when pushed and released.
9. Repeat steps 5 through 7 for the modular bay latch.
