Access panel

An access panel is an opening in the outer surface of a fembot's body that grands access to its inner workings, with the purpose of facilitating maintenance or repair. Access panels may be featured virtually anywhere on a fembot's body. Popular locations include the abdomen, the thorax and the back. The panels may be fairly obvious, indicated by seams or marking on the fembot's exterior, or carefully hidden to preserve its human-like appearance.

Access panels may open directly on the fembot's inner mechanisms, or on a control panel that allow faster alteration of the fembot's operation.

A more modern take on the access panel is the subdermal control panel, seen as a lit up portion of the skin that can be controlled by touch.
