**Note: On some of the newer APM 2000s and on all of the APM 2700s the card readers can be replaced by opening the front of the case and removing the screws in the front and the cables in the back.
Step 1 - Open the Case: |
|
|---|---|
1. Disconnect all cables on the rear of the kiosk. |
|
2. Remove the back plate. There are four screws, one in each corner. |

3. Pull the back panel away from the machine. On the right side is a power cord with red yellow and black wire, unplug it. On the left side are two ribbon cables. You may want to unplug them to lay the back panel flat. Keep an eye on how they are plugged in, the one on top has the blue tape facing towards the inside of the machine while the one underneath has the blue tape facing outside. |

4. Reaching in from the back of the kiosk, remove the screw that is holding the left card reader bracket in place. |
|
5. Now remove the screw from the right bracket. |
|
6. Remove all connections from the back of the card reader. There will be two power cords and a USB cable. |

7. Unlock the front of the kiosk and pull the drawer all the way out. |
