COUPLING COMPONENT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [(E)]


id0319008004x2

Oil and Chemical Type

Sealant
 
Type: TB1217C or equivalent

Caution
•  If the characteristic value of a new coupling component is not input to the PCM or the characteristic value is input incorrectly after replacing the coupling component, it could result in the following conditions:
―  The system does not operate normally.
―  A problem with durability of the coupling component occurs.
•  After replacing the coupling component, read out the characteristic value of a new coupling component and write it to the PCM. (See COUPLING COMPONENT CALIBRATION DATA WRITING.)
•  Read out the characteristic value of the coupling component from the label or mark shown in the figure.

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

2.  Drain the rear differential oil into a container. (See DIFFERENTIAL OIL REPLACEMENT.)

3.  Remove the tunnel cover. (See MIDDLE PIPE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-X 2.0].)

4.  Remove the following parts: (See MIDDLE PIPE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-X 2.0].)

(1)  Tunnel member
(2)  Brace bar

5.  Remove the following parts:

(1)  Floor under cover No.1 (See FLOOR UNDER COVER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
(2)  Floor under cover No.2 (See FLOOR UNDER COVER REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

6.  Disconnect the connector shown in the figure.

13.  Remove in the order indicated in the figure.

14.  Install in the reverse order of removal.

15.  Add the specified rear differential oil. (See DIFFERENTIAL OIL REPLACEMENT.)

16.  After replacing the coupling component, read out the characteristic value of a new coupling component and write it to the PCM. (See COUPLING COMPONENT CALIBRATION DATA WRITING.)

Coupling Component Installation Note

Note
•  Clean away the remaining silicone sealant before applying new silicone sealant.
•  Install the coupling component before the applied silicone sealant starts to harden.
•  Add rear differential oil after the silicone sealant hardens.

1.  Apply a thin layer of silicone sealant TB1217C or equivalent to the contact surfaces of the coupling component and the rear differential.
