a distance of approximately 50 feet (approximately
14 m ) e v e r y s e c o n d .

removed/replaced properly this may impair the
function of other components.
These malfunctions might seriously impair the
operating safety of your vehicle.We recommend that you have any service work or
alternations on electronic components done in an
