Fig 1. Video Card Bottom View
Figure two shows the FRU P/N85G1934 with a straight cable. This will cause excessive tension on the J14 Video card connector, if it is installed without being pre-bent. This condition could cause a J14 solder connection failure.

DETAIL:
9545 755CD and 755CDV Video Boards may experience no TV video in on the LCD or an external monitor and no TV video out on the TV monitor, if the Video Card J14 connector breaks away from the card. This may occur if the S-Video card cable was installed as Fig 2 (straight with no pre-bending). The tension from the straight cable will cause excessive strain at the J14 connector and could cause it to fail.

Systems meeting the PHYSICAL CHECK criteria should have the following done:
1. Video Adapter Card replaced with FRU P/N85G8507.
2. Discard the 2.5x14mm screw that attaches the S-Video card to the plastic bracket. Use a 2.5x12mm screw contained in Screw Kit FRU P/N12J0808. The screw itself is contained in a kit bag 12j0811 (12j0811 is an identifier number, not a FRU.)
FIG 3
3. Bend the cable on the S-Video card FRU P/N85G1934 as shown in Fig 3 and attach it to the plastic bracket using the new size screw.
4. Place the S-Video card / bracket into position. The P14 plug should align itself correctly above the J14 connector while exerting some downward pressure.
5. Insert the P14 plug into the J14 Connector. This eliminates the above downward pressure, ensuring a minimal torque between the connector and plug.
NOTE: A new S-Video Card is not required unless it is damaged. The new level S-Video card has the same FRU part number, but it now has a pre-bent cable. This cable should also be checked for limited tension and adjusted accordingly when an S-Video Card is being installed.
