Einleitung
Der Lüfter reguliert die Temperatur im Inneren der Time Capsule, damit die Komponenten einwandfrei funktionieren.
Sollte der Lüfter einmal defekt sein, ist es sehr einfach diesen zu tauschen.

Drehe das Gerät um, um an die Gummiabdeckung der Rückplatte zu gelangen. Schiebe vorsichtig die stumpfe Spitze des Metall-Spudgers in den Spalt zwischen Aluminium-Rückplatte und Gummiabdeckung, um die beiden Teile voneinander zu lösen.

Der Lüfter ist auf der Rückplatte befestigt und mit dem Logic Board verbunden. Hier muss ein kleines Kabel entfernt werden, um die Rückplatte komplett zu entfernen.

Ziehe das Kabel vorsichtig in Richtung Logic Board, um den Stecker zu lösen.

Halte die Rückplatte so, dass der Lüfter auf der von dir abgewandten Seite liegt.

Benutze einen #0 Kreuzschlitzschraubendreher, um die Gummimuffen durch die Rückplatte zu drücken.

Um dein Gerät wieder zusamnmenzusetzen, befolge die Anleitung in umgekehrter Reihenfolge.
The epoxy cementing the rubber pad to the aluminum base is a lot stronger than the rubber itself. The rubber is likely to tear as you remove it; I had to use a putty knife to clear the screws. It's worth hanging onto the branding near the Ethernet ports, for future identification (model number, serial number, Ethernet ID, AirPort ID); you can fashion a replacement pad out of neoprene rubber.

Mine completely ripped I have no back cover now its in multiple pieces…. mine was giving off way to much heat and hard drive errors so I decided to replace hard drive and fan wish me luck BUT if yours is overheating do not expect to get back off without ripping the rubber to

Using a fan to heat the plate up was helpful

I wish I read Michael Zimmermann’s suggestion before I tore the first half into about 15 pieces! On the second half I used a hair dryer to heat the rubber. With enough heat and a very slow steady pull on the rubber it came of as a single piece :-)

Do I need to put back on the rubber? will it overheat if I don’t?

It is almost impossible to keep the bottom rubber covering intact in one piece. The rubber is covering the whole base section and it won’t be a problem without it I guess. This is not an epoxy because it is still gummy and sticky. This is like the adhesive used on the double side tapes. Goo Gone worked well to remove those residues.

The rubber cap like bottom can be replaced with easy to cut in shape cork sheet will do. Just rip off the thin strip where the serial number for the ID and other info that might be needed later. Have it glued or put on a clear tape and put it on the side of the white plastic sidewall will do.

With age, the rubber becomes brittle. It is best to heat it up with a hair dryer before trying to gently peel it off.
