Harness Service

Refer to the illustrations shown in Harness Routing for the harness being replaced while performing the following procedures.

REMOVAL

NOTE: Remove any necessary trim panels to gain access to the harness.

1. Disconnect battery ground cable.
2. Disconnect all wiring harness connectors.
3. Disengage harness from all locators, straps or clips as necessary, including ground wire eyelets. Remove harness from vehicle.

INSTALLATION
1. Position harness in vehicle, making sure that harness is engaged in all locators, straps or clips.
2. Connect all harness connectors to components or other harnesses as necessary.
3. Secure ground eyelets to body as necessary.
4. Connect battery ground cable and check all applicable circuits for proper operation.

NOTE: When the battery has been disconnected and reconnected, some abnormal drive symptoms may occur while the powertrain control module relearns its adaptive strategy. The vehicle may need to be driven 16 km (10 miles) or more to relearn the strategy.

5. Install any trim removed during harness removal.
