Introduction

This guide shows how to disconnect the WLAN module cables in your HP EliteBook 840 G9 laptop.

Slide an arm of a pair of angled tweezers under the metal neck of one of the coaxial connectors on the WLAN (Wi-Fi) module, near the right hinge.
Lift straight up to disconnect the cable.
Repeat the process to disconnect the remaining coaxial connector.
During reassembly:
Connect the cable with black tape to the socket with a black arrow below it, and the white cable to the socket with a white arrow.
Use tweezers to hold a connector in place over its socket and gently press down with your finger or a spudger—the connector should "snap" into place. If you're having trouble, reposition the head and try again. Don't use excessive force.
