For equivalent regional tools, refer to Special Tools .

Removal Procedure

    Danger: Always perform the High Voltage Disabling procedure prior to servicing any High Voltage component or connection. Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) and proper procedures must be followed.

    The High Voltage Disabling procedure will perform the following tasks:

       • Identify how to disable high voltage.
       • Identify how to test for the presence of high voltage.
       • Identify condition under which high voltage is always present and personal protection equipment (PPE) and proper procedures must be followed.
    Failure to follow the procedures exactly as written may result in serious injury or death.

  1. Disable the high voltage system. Refer to High Voltage Disabling .
  2. Drain the cooling system. Refer to Cooling System Draining and Filling .
  3. Disable the high voltage system. Refer to High Voltage Disabling .
  4. Remove the camshaft cover. Refer to Camshaft Cover Replacement .
  5. Remove both camshaft position actuator solenoid valves. Refer to Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve Replacement : Exhaust  → Intake .
  6. Adjust the engine to TDC. Refer to Camshaft Timing Chain Adjustment .
  7. Remove the engine mount bracket. Refer to Engine Mount Bracket Replacement - Right Side .
  8. Place a floor jack with block of wood under the oil sump.
