Caution
•  Water or foreign objects entering the connector can cause a poor connection or corrosion. Be sure not to drop water or foreign objects on the connector when disconnecting it.
•  Do not damage the terminals.

On-Vehicle Inspection

1.  Perform the following procedures.

(1)  Disconnect the negative battery cable.
(2)  Disconnect the coupler component connector.
