In this case, just remove the heatsink from the box to prevent it from short-circuiting the microcomputer board. The alternative is to use some double-sided, heat-transfering adhesive tape to re-attach the heatsinks. Remember to wipe the surface first before mounting the heatsink.   * {{ ::heatsink.png?80|}}Over time, the heatsink could detach, as its adhesive would dry up.

   * {{ ::raspbibetawithfan.jpg?100|}} IF you have a eLib Box version with a fan that draws its power from the Raspberry Pi board, notice to which pins fan wires are attached to and the colors (red and black) of the wire.
