COUPLER COMPONENT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [CW6A-EL]


id0517l1112400

Replacement Part

tie wrap clip
 
Quantity: 3
 
Location of use: Coupler component

Warning
•  A hot transaxle and ATF can cause severe burns. Turn off the engine and wait until they are cool.
•  Always wear protective eye wear when using the air compressor. If the air compressor is used, any particles of dirt or sludge could spatter and get into the eyes.
Caution
•  If the control valve body is placed with the shift solenoid side facing down on a workbench, the wiring harness or connector of the coupler component may be damaged. When placing the control valve body on a workbench, always place it with the control valve body connector side facing down. However if the control valve body is directly placed on the workbench, the control valve body connector area or the sensor may be damaged. Always place the control valve body on an impact-absorbing material, which is free of foreign matter, so that the connector area and the sensor do not contact the workbench directly.

•  Do not apply excessive force to the coupler component wiring harness.
•  Do not twist the coupler component wiring harness.

1.  Select the selector lever to P position.

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

3.  Remove the front under cover No.1. (See FRONT UNDER COVER No.1 REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

4.  Remove the front under cover No.2. (See FRONT UNDER COVER No.2 REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

5.  Clean the transaxle exterior throughout with a steam cleaner or cleaning solvents.

6.  Remove the following parts as a single unit. (See INTAKE-AIR SYSTEM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [SKYACTIV-G (WITHOUT CYLINDER DEACTIVATION (E))].)

•  Air cleaner cover
•  Air cleaner element
•  Fresh-air duct
•  Air cleaner case
•  Air hose
•  Resonance chamber

7.  Drain the ATF. (See AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE FLUID (ATF) REPLACEMENT [CW6A-EL].)

8.  Remove the control valve body. (See CONTROL VALVE BODY REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [CW6A-EL].)

9.  Remove the oil seal (control valve body). (See OIL SEAL (CONTROL VALVE BODY) REPLACEMENT [CW6A-EL].)

10.  Release the tab shown in the figure and disconnect the connector.

Caution
•  When disconnecting connectors, grasp the connectors, not the wiring harnesses. Otherwise, the wiring harnesses may be pulled out of the connector causing poor contact. Disconnect the connector by pulling the connector part straight with the connector tab released.

11.  Loosen the bolts shown in the figure.
