id0740a1802500

Caution
•  If the gear position exceeds the operation range shown in the figure, the circuit in the actuator could be damaged. Always perform an actuator operation inspection with the gear movement within the range shown in the figure.

L.H.D.

1.  Disconnect the negative battery terminal. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION.)

2.  Remove the following parts:

(1)  Passenger-side scuff plate (See SCUFF PLATE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
(2)  Passenger-side front side trim (See FRONT SIDE TRIM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
(3)  Passenger-side A-pillar trim (See A-PILLAR TRIM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
(4)  Passenger-side lower panel (See PASSENGER-SIDE LOWER PANEL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

3.  Remove the duct.
