REMOVING AND REFITTING
THE DRIVE SHAFT ASSEMBLIES
Support the front of the vehicle on stands 6602-T.
Release the pressure in the hydraulic system.
Set the height control to the “low” position.
Remove: Fig. I:
- the road wheel,
- the pin and nut lock,
- the nut (35 mm A/F). Retain the wheel hub using
tool 6310-T, Fig. I.
Fig. II,
- suspension cylinder swivel ball maintaining pin (I 1,
- anti-roll bar link-rod nut (2).
Uncouple spherical ball (3) from the anti-roll bar link-
rod by means of puller 6320-T, Fig. Ill: (Screw up
the tool nut to the ball-joint stem and fit the tool “U”
part and spindle).
Disconnect the brake pad wear warning lamp electri-
cal harness.
Take off the brake disc cooling plate securing screws. Extract the nut of the swivel lower ball pin.
Uncouple the swivel lower ball pin with extractor
3312-T or 6323-T (Avoid damaging the ball joint
protection rubber).
Removing the LH drive-shaft assembly:
Push the LH drive shaft (5) aside with a chisel (6),
bearing against the heads of the gearbox flange
screws, Fig. V.
Important : If a few hammer strokes are not enough
to push aside drive shaft (51, the circlip is probably
blocked inside the sun gear. In that case, undo
clamp (4) and remove the transmission without its
drive-shaft, (retrieve the rollerl.
Turn the steering through full lock to the left.
Leave the swivel hanging.
Liberate the LH transmission from the hub and remove
it.
Removing the RH drive-shaft assembly:
Slacken the drive-shaft bearing support nuts (71,
Fig. VI.
Swing through a half turn tie rods (81, so as to release
the bearing outer track.
Withdraw drive shaft (9) from the sun gear. (Remove
the shaft, the o’ring seal, bush, and dust seal).
Turn the steering to full right lock; leave the swivel
hanging.
Disengage the RH transmission from the wheel hub
and remove it.

Between harnesses G (LIH front) & M (engine), there is a white 3 channel connector. On channel 1, the wire
is colour brown with a green marker and a flat pin on the side of LH harness. On the side of engine harness,
it is colour black with a green marker ending in a clip.
This connector is found on “d5” on the wiring diagram (referred as round 0. This circle can include other
connectors).
The No. 1 channel of the white 3 channel connector is to be found on line “91” of the circuit diagram
(reference /3B1/ 1. I
REF. MARKS: several ref. types are utilised.
Large capital figures identify the parts,
Large capital letters identify the harnesses.
Small letters denote the colours according to the code below:
B: White G: Grey Ic: Clear Mv: Gauve (purple) Or: Orange Rr: Pink
BI: Blue J: Yellow M: Brown N: Black R: Red V: Green
1.
- When used on their own, these letters indicate the colour either of a paint mark or of a colour stripe on the wire.
- When a horizontal bar is over them, the letters identify the colour of the wire insulator.
- Used in a box, a letter denotes the colour of the connector.
Small figures: indicate the number of channels or the channel No. of a connector. Marking IS on the insulator
(injection). The channels are numbered 1 to 10 but in fact, 10 is represented as 0.
Roman figures: are used to number the function diagrams and the columns on the junction box and to locate
the various outlet connections of the latter.

Example:
This connector is the first one of the 2nd column (II) of the junction box, situated to the right hand side.
It is a brown (Ml IO channel 0 connector i-1 The channel is the 8th way (8) marked on the junction box,
starting from the RH side. From the channel is a black wire (N), included in the instrument panel (B) to junction
box harness. The wire has an internal splice: the grey spliced wire (G) incorporates a black (N) marker on the
section entering the channel 1 from 4 way white connector m of lighting rheostat (795).

JUNCTION BOX MA 510.00/1 1
The junction box is to be found under the dashboard, to the left (right on RHD) of the steering wheel. It combi-
nes most of the electrical functions.
It is presented on page 3, as seen from above, the front of the vehicle being directed to the left.
COMPONENTS:
- 14 fuses (refer to the table)
- A relay for the electric cooling fan
: RI
- A relay for the rear window winder motor
: R2
- A relay for the front window winder motor : R3
- A relay for the heated rear screen
: R4
- A direction indicator unit : c
- A delay/timer unit for the windscreen wiper : I
- Connectors
Connectors:
- 26, all different, can be connected.
’
- They are different by the number of channels and their colour, each colour being attributed a specific casing slot
- They are grouped by columns I to V (from left to right) and stages 1 to 6 max. (from top to bottom).
All these figures are to be found either side of the conductor on the circuit diagram.
How to read the table (page 2):
Example II 1 0 M 9
B
Connector situated in the 2nd column (II), 1st stage (I).
It is a brown (MI 10 channel (0) connector
The lead (conductor) is located in the channel 9 of the connector concerned on the circuit diagram.
Function : lead supplying the clock electrically: + permanent after fuse F7.
Wires and stripes (V H) Green wire with a black stripe.
Position (66): number of the vertical line on the circuit diagram where the channel and the connector in
question are to be found.
The letter positioned below indicates the harness which connects at that place: B (box)
Special features:
The two black 2 channel connectors used, cannot be mistaken: they differ by a 9 mm clip on the one hand
and a 5 mm flat pin on the other hand.
The yellow 2 channel connector and fuse F14 are used in cold countries only.
