    • Loosen the three Phillips screws securing the access door to the bottom edge of your iMac.

    • These screws will remain captive in the access door.

    • Remove the access door from your iMac.

    • During reassembly, fasten the access door loosely and align it with the pocket cut into the outer case of the iMac before fully tightening the screws.

    In order for the logic board to come out cleanly, one should remove the RAM at the end of this step.

    Definitely! The author should make this as a step in the description (because not everyone reads Comments)

    Just did this procedure and the RAM must absolutely come out for the logic board to come free later.
