HP Spectre x360 Laptop - 15-eb0053dx

I am trying to get a screen shot that will identify the exact location for the intel wifi 6 a201 adapter. I am trying to replace it, but when took the notebook apart, I could not readily identify the wifi adapter. I have looked high and low for a diagram

to lead me to it...thus far no luck. Would greatly appreciate help in locating the part on the board.

Hi:

 

Your notebook's Wi-Fi adapter is an integral part of the motherboard.

 

If the Wi-Fi adapter no longer works the motherboard would have to be replaced, or you can purchase a USB dual band Wi-Fi adapter.

 

You should see two Wi-Fi antenna wires going to the Wi-Fi adapter.

 

Here's the link to the service manual.

There is a shield covering the Wi-Fi antenna wires.

 

It is labeled as item # 1 in chapter 5 on page 34, and item #4 in chapter 5 on page 55.
