Service Procedure

1. Open the hood.





2. Place the dash shield over the dash silencer pad on the dash panel as shown in Figure 1. Temporarily place a small block of wood between the EGR cooler and dash shield to hold it in place (Figure 1).

CAUTION:
Failure to pierce a hole through the dash silencer pad will cause the dash silencer pad material to wrap around the screw during
installation.





4. Using one of the self-drilling screws provided and an air ratchet, install the screw located on the dash shield tab (Figure 3).





5. Using a cotter pin puller (Snap-on SGA173B or equivalent) pierce a hole through the dash silencer pad. Then use a circular motion to enlarge the hole in the dash silencer pad. Use the dash shield as a template (Figure 4).

CAUTION:
Failure to pierce a hole through the dash silencer pad will cause the dash silencer pad material to wrap around the screw during installation.





6. Using a 1/8 inch (3 mm) drill bit, drill a hole into the dash panel using the dash shield as a template (Figure 5).
