General fitting instructions
Precautions against damage
To avoid damage to the vehicle when carrying out
repairs, always adhere to the following:
lAlways fit wing and seat covers before
commencing work. Avoid spilling brake fluid or
battery acid on paintwork; immediately wash off
with water if this occurs.
lDisconnect the battery earth lead before starting
work, see ELECTRICAL PRECAUTIONS.
lAlways use the recommended service tool or a
satisfactory equivalent where specified.
lProtect exposed bearing surfaces, sealing
surfaces and screw threads from damage.
Component removal
Whenever possible, clean components and
surrounding area before removal.
lBlank off openings exposed by component
removal.
lImmediately seal fuel, oil or hydraulic lines when
apertures are exposed; use plastic caps or
plugs to prevent loss of fluid and ingress of dirt.
lClose open ends of oilways exposed by
component removal with tapered hardwood
plugs or conspicuous plastic plugs.
lImmediately a component is removed, place it in
a suitable container; use a separate container
for each component and its associated parts.
lClean bench and provide marking materials,
labels, containers and locking wire before
dismantling a component.
Dismantling
Observe scrupulous cleanliness when dismantling
components, particularly when brake, fuel or
hydraulic system parts are being worked on. A
particle of dirt or a cloth fragment could cause a
serious malfunction if trapped in these systems.Use the following procedures:
lBlow out all tapped holes, crevices, oilways and
fluid passages with an air line. Ensure that any
O-rings used for sealing are correctly replaced
or renewed if disturbed during the process.
lUse marking ink to identify mating parts and
ensure correct reassembly. Do not use a centre
punch or scriber to mark parts, they could
initiate cracks or distortion in marked
components.
lWire together mating parts where necessary to
prevent accidental interchange (e.g. roller
bearing components).
lWire labels on to all parts which are to be
renewed, and to parts requiring further
inspection before being passed for reassembly;
place these parts in separate containers from
those containing parts for rebuild.
lDo not discard a part due for renewal until after
comparing it with a new part to ensure that its
correct replacement has been obtained.
Cleaning components
Always use the recommended cleaning agent or
equivalent. Ensure that adequate ventilation is
provided when volatile degreasing agents are being
used. Do not use degreasing equipment for
components containing items which could be
damaged by the use of this process.
When washing under bonnet, never direct water onto
ECM, as water ingress may occur resulting in
damage to electrical components inside.
General Inspection
All components should be inspected for wear or
damage before being reassembled.
lNever inspect a component for wear or
dimensional check unless it is absolutely clean;
a slight smear of grease can conceal an
incipient failure.
lWhen a component is to be checked
dimensionally against recommended values,
use the appropriate measuring equipment
(surface plates, micrometers, dial gauges etc.).
Ensure the measuring equipment is calibrated
and in good serviceable condition.
lReject a component if its dimensions are
outside the specified tolerances, or if it appears
to be damaged.
lA part may be refitted if its critical dimension is
exactly to its tolerance limit and it appears to be
in satisfactory condition.
lUse 'Plastigauge' 12 Type PG-1 for checking
bearing surface clearances.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Disciplines
Switch off the ignition prior to making any connection
or disconnection in the system, to prevent electrical
surges caused by disconnecting 'live' connections
damaging electronic components.
Ensure hands and work surfaces are clean and free
of grease, swarf, etc. Grease collects dirt which can
cause electrical tracking (short-circuits) or high-
resistance contacts.
When handling printed circuit boards, treat with care
and hold by the edges only; note that some electronic
components are susceptible to body static.
Connectors should never be subjected to forced
removal or refit, especially inter-board connectors.
Damaged contacts can cause short-circuit and
open-circuit fault conditions.
Prior to commencing test, and periodically during a
test, touch a good vehicle body earth to discharge
static charge. Some electronic components are
vulnerable to the static electricity that may be
generated by the operator.
Grease for electrical connectors
Some under bonnet and under body connectors may
be protected against corrosion by the application of a
special grease during vehicle production. Should
connectors be disturbed in service, or repaired or
replaced, additional grease should be re-applied:
Part No. BAU 5811, available in 150 gm tubs.
NOTE: The use of greases other than BAU 5811
must be avoided as they can migrate into relays,
switches etc. contaminating the contacts and leading
to intermittent operation or failure.
Supplementary restraint system
precautions
General
The Supplementary Restraint System (SRS)
provides active protection for vehicle occupants in
the event of a serious collision. The system
components include airbags and pre-tensioner seat
belts which are automatically deployed when a
severe frontal crash condition is detected.
The SRS pyrotechnic components could be
potentially hazardous to the service engineer if not
handled correctly. The following guidelines are
intended to alert the service engineer to potential
sources of danger and emphasise the importance of
ensuring the integrity of SRS components fitted to
the vehicle.
In order to assure system integrity, it is essential that
the SRS system is regularly checked and maintained
so that it is ready for operation in the event of an
accident.
Where necessary, additional specific precautions are
detailed in the relevant sections of this Manual which
should be referred to prior to commencing repair
operations.
WARNING: Always follow the 'SRS Precautions'
and the correct procedures for working on SRS
components. Persons working on SRS systems
must be fully trained and have been issued with
copies of the Safety guidelines.
WARNING: It is imperative that before any work
is undertaken on the SRS system the appropriate
information is read thoroughly.
WARNING: The airbag module contains sodium
azide which is poisonous and extremely
flammable. Contact with water, acid or heavy
metals may produce harmful or explosive
compounds. Do not dismantle, incinerate or
bring into contact with electricity, before the unit
has been deployed.
WARNING: Always replace a seat belt assembly
that has withstood the strain of a severe vehicle
impact, or if the webbing shows signs of fraying.
WARNING: Always disconnect the vehicle
battery before carrying out any electric welding
on a vehicle fitted with an SRS system.
CAUTION: Do not expose an airbag module or
seat belt pre-tensioner to heat exceeding 85º C
(185º F).
