- If equipped, hold the wiring harness bracket - 1 - on the rear final drive and then tighten the bolts - arrows - to the tightening specification. Be careful not to pinch the wiring harness - 3 -.

Connector allocation for the oil pressure/temperature sensor and the clutch valves :






- 1 - = oil pressure/temperature sensor 2 (G640) connector

- 2 - = oil pressure/temperature sensor (G437) connector

- 3 - = AWD clutch valve 2 (N446) connector

- 4 - = AWD clutch valve (N445) connector
