On the right is the module and on the left is the module access cover ,it pulls out.


Remove the screws and loosen the wiring,from the clips ,and the module can be moved to the outside of the machine,if a new module is to be fitted then remove the wires one by one and put on and pull off the new board a couple of times to make sure a good connection is established.Then it will have to be programmed unless a good second hand board, off a good machine (it must be the same machine), is to be fitted.
