HERE IS A MANUAL that shows how to get inside the case for various replacement procedures. It does not address the card reader exactly but once the front cover is removed, it should be easy.
BTW: The connection to the motherboard is through the USB header along the edge of the motherboard. In this picture, along the lower edge.
I'm not an HP employee.

Although not specifically addressing the Card Reader unit, the instructions in the manual has given me a very good idea as to how I need to proceed. Very confident now that I will be able to replace the unit.
Very much appreciate the quick response and assistance.
- Tags:
- remove another screw at the top of the carrier and reversed the process to install. Pretty straight forward.
- slide the carriage back into the computer case
- unplug the wire connector
- Was able to replace the card reader. Manual gave me enough information to gain access to the unit. Needed to remove two screws on the side
