REMOVAL
REMOVE ANTENNA ROD
HINT:
Perform this operation with the negative (−) terminal cable con-
nected to the battery.
(a) Turn the ignition switch to the ”LOCK” position.
(b) Remove the antenna nut.
(c) Press the ”AM” buttons on the radio receiver, and simulta-
neously turn the ignition switch to the ”ACC” position.
HINT:

4. ECU (ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT)
Locations of ECUs
Many ECUs are mounted in this vehicle.
Take the following precautions during body repair to prevent damage to the ECUs.

Before starting electric welding operations, disconnect the negative (-) terminal cable from the battery.
When the negative (-) terminal cable is disconnected from the battery, memory of the clock and audio
systems will be cancelled. So before starting work, make a record of the contents memorized by each
memory system. Then when work is finished, reset the clock and audio systems as before.
When the vehicle has tilt and telescopic steering, power seat and outside rear view mirror, which are all
equipped with memory function, it is not possible to make a record of the memory contents.
So when the operation is finished, it will be necessary to explain this fact to the customer, and request
the customer to adjust the features and reset the memory.

Do not expose the ECUs to ambient temperatures above 80°C (176°F).
NOTICE: If it is possible the ambient temperature may reach 80 °C (176 °F) or more, remove the ECUs
from the vehicle before starting work.

Be careful not to drop the ECUs and not to apply physical shocks to them.
4. COMPONENTS ADJACENT TO THE BODY PANELS
Various types of component parts are mounted directly on or adjacently to the body panels.
Strictly observe the following precautions to prevent damaging these components and the body panels
during handling.

Before repairing the body panels, remove their components or apply protective covers over the comœ
ponents.

Before prying components off using screwdriver or a scraper, etc., attach protective tape to the tool
tip or blade to prevent damaging the components and the body paint.

Before removing components from the outer surface of the body, attach protective tape to the body to
ensure no damage to painted areas.
HINT: Apply touch-up paint to any damaged paint surfaces.

Before drilling or cutting sections, make sure that there are no wires, etc. on the reverse side.

HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
1. The repair procedure for plastic body parts must conform with the type of plastic material.
2. Plastic body parts are identified by the codes in the following chart.
3. When repairing metal body parts adjoining plastic body parts (by brazing, frame cutting, welding,
painting etc.), consideration must given to the property of the plastic.
*Temperatures higher than those listed here may result in material deformation during repair.

(d) Check that the cooling fan rotates.
If not, check the fan main relay, cooling fan relay, cooling fan,
fuses, and check for short circuit between the cooling fan relay
and ECT switch.
