Repair procedures

Removal

1.	Move the shift lever to "N" range.

2.	Remove the air cleaner assembly and air duct. (Refer to Engine Mechnical System - "Air Cleaner")

3.	Remove the battery and battery tray. (Refer to Engine Electrical System - "Battery")

4.	Disconnect the gear actuator motor connector (A).

5.	Remove the wiring mounting clip (B) after disconnecting the gear actuator solenoid connector (A).

Remove the gear actuator assembly after loosening bolts (A, B).

Tightening torque :

(A) 9.8 - 11.8 N·m (1.0 - 1.2 kgf·m, 7.2 - 8.7 lb·ft)

(B) 19.6 - 26.5 N·m (2.0 - 2.7 kgf·m, 14.5 - 19.5 lb·ft)

Installation

1.	Install in the reverse order of removal.

•	Check the following before installing the gear actuator assembly.

1)	Check that the gear actuator is placed in the "neutral" state.

2)	Check the assembled state of the O-rings (A).

3)	Apply gear oil to the surface of O-rings.

4)	Check the assembled state of the dowel pins (A).

•	Perform the clutch touch point learning procedure using the KDS after replacing the gear actuator assembly.
