(27) Install lower steering column cover/knee
blocker (Fig. 62).
(28) Install silencer panel below lower steering col-
umn cover/knee blocker.
NOTE: When reconnecting the battery on a vehicle
that has had the airbag module removed, the fol-
lowing procedure should be used.
(29) Reconnect ground cable to negative post of
battery in following manor:
(a) Connect scan tool (DRBIIIt) to data link
diagnostic connector located below steering column.
(b) Turn ignition key to ON position. Exit vehi-
cle with scan tool leaving scan tool harness
plugged in.
(c) Ensuring that there are no occupants in vehi-
cle, connect ground (-) cable to the negative post of
the battery.
(d) Using scan tool, read and record any airbag
fault codes. Refer to Appropriate Diagnostic Infor-
mation if any faults are found.
(e) Through drivers open window, Reach around
back of steering wheel (between steering wheel and
instrument cluster) and turn ignition key to OFF,
then back ON while observing instrument cluster
airbag indicator lamp. It should go on for six to
eight seconds, then go out. This action indicates
that airbag system is functioning normally. If air-
bag indicator lamp fails to light, blinks on and off,
or goes on and stays on, there is an airbag system
malfunction. Refer to Appropriate Diagnostic Infor-
mation to diagnose the system malfunction.
(30) Using scan tool (DRBIIIt), check for and clear
any existing adjustable pedal fault codes. The adjust-
able pedal system is now activated.
(31) Turn key to OFF and remove scan tool from
vehicle.
(32) Test operation of adjustable pedals, memory
seats (if equipped), RKE (if equipped), and all func-
tions that are steering column operated. If applica-
ble, reset the radio and the clock.
(33) Road test the vehicle to ensure proper opera-
tion of the steering and brake systems.

(15) Slide master cylinder straight out of power
brake booster. Remove master cylinder with primary
and secondary tubes from vehicle.
CAUTION: A seal on the rear of the master cylinder

power brake vacuum booster. The vacuum seal on
the master cylinder MUST be replaced whenever the
master cylinder is removed from the power brake
vacuum booster.
(16) Disconnect vacuum hose from check valve
located on vacuum booster.DO NOT REMOVE
CHECK VALVE FROM POWER BRAKE
BOOSTER.
(17) Inside vehicle, remove silencer panel under
instrument panel below steering column.
(18) Locate the booster input rod to brake pedal
connection under the instrument panel. Position a

(7) Using a brake pedal depressor, move and lock
the brake pedal to a position past the first inch of
pedal travel.This will prevent brake fluid from
draining out of the master cylinder once the
brake tubes are removed from the HCU.

lock on the 24±way connector and pull it as far up as
possible. This will unlock the 24±way connector from
the socket on the CAB.
CAUTION: Before removing the brake tubes from
the HCU, the HCU must be thoroughly cleaned. This
must be done to prevent dirt particles from falling
into the ports of HCU or entering the brake tubes.
(11) Thoroughly clean all surfaces of the ICU and
brake tube nuts. Use only a solvent such as Mopart
Brake Parts Cleaner or equivalent to clean the ICU.
(12) Remove the brake tubes (4) from the outlet
ports on the HCU (Fig. 14).
(13) Remove the primary and secondary brake
tubes from the inlet ports on the HCU (Fig. 14).
(14) Center and prop the steering wheel.
(15) Remove the silencer panel under the instru-
ment panel, below the steering column.(16) Remove the pinch bolt and disconnect the
steering shaft coupling.
(17) Remove the two clips securing silencer to dash
seal (Fig. 15).
(18) Remove the three screws securing the dash
seal (Fig. 15).
(19) Remove the 3 bolts attaching the ICU to its
mounting bracket (Fig. 16).
(20) Remove ICU from the vehicle through engine
compartment.
(21) If required, to separating the CAB from the
HCU, (Refer to 5 - BRAKES - ABS/HYDRAULIC/ME-
CHANICAL/ICU (INTEGRATED CONTROL UNIT) -
DISASSEMBLY).
REMOVAL - RHD
NOTE: Before proceeding, (Refer to 5 - BRAKES -
WARNING)(Refer to 5 - BRAKES - CAUTION)
(1) Disconnect the negative (ground) cable from
the battery and isolate cable.

DRIVE BELTS
DESCRIPTION
The drive belts are a Poly-V type belt. Belt widths
vary depending on the various engine and accessory
packages. Satisfactory performance of these belts
depends on belt condition and proper belt tension.
OPERATION
The accessory drive belts form the link between
the engine crankshaft and the engine driven accesso-
ries.

STEERING BELT TENSION
WARNING: DO NOT CHECK BELT TENSION WITH
ENGINE RUNNING.
Accessory drive belt tension can be measured with
Special Tool 8371 ± Belt Tension Gauge Adapter, and
the DRBIIItusing the following procedures:
(1) Connect 8371 to the DRBIIItfollowing the
instructions provided with tool.
(2) Place end of microphone probe approximately
2.54 cm (1 in.) from belt at belt center span location
shown in (Fig. 3).
(3) Pluck the belt a minimum of 3 times. (Use your
finger or other suitable tool) The frequency of the
belt in hertz (Hz) will display on DRBIIItscreen.
