All cables on Yuno are managed behind a back lid that in some cases needs to be removed for troubleshooting purposes.

Before releasing the lid, make sure the device is unpowered and that there are no external USB devices connected to the POS using the slots on the side of the device. To be sure, disconnect the device from the power plug.
