1. Pull headlining assembly (rear). Obtain a service area. Refer to INT-28, "Exploded View".
2. Disconnect antenna feeder connector.
3. Remove nut, and remove satellite radio antenna and the cover from the vehicle as a single unit.
INSTALLATION
Install in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
If the satellite radio ante nna mounting nut is tightened looser than the specified torque, then this will
lower the sensitivity of the antenna. On the other hand, if the nut is tightened tighter than the specified
torque, then this will deform the roof panel.

5. When the repair work is completed, re-connect both battery cables. With the brake pedal released, turn
the push-button ignition switch from ACC position to ON position, then to LOCK position. (The steering
wheel will lock when the push-button igniti on switch is turned to LOCK position.)
6. Perform self-diagnosis check of all control units using CONSULT-III.
Precaution for Procedure without Cowl Top CoverINFOID:0000000006228173
When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield with urethane, etc.
Precaution for Brake systemINFOID:0000000006222459
WARNING:
Clean any dust from the front brake and rear brake wi th a vacuum dust collector. Never blow with com-
pressed air.
 Brake fluid use refer to MA-10, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
 Never reuse drained brake fluid.
 Never spill or splash brake fluid on painted surfaces. Brake fluid may seriously damage paint. Wipe it off
immediately and wash with water if it gets on a painted surface.
 Always confirm the specified tightening torque when installing the brake pipes.
 After pressing the brake pedal more deeply or harder t han normal driving, such as air bleeding, check each
item of brake pedal. Adjust brake pedal if it is outside the standard value.
 Always clean with new brake fluid when cleaning the brake caliper and other components.
 Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or light oil to clean. They may damage rubber parts and cause
improper operation.
 Always loosen the brake tube flar e nut with a flare nut wrench.
 Tighten the brake tube flare nut to the specified torque with a crow-
foot (A) and torque wrench (B).
 Brake system is an important safety part. If a brake fluid leak is detected, always disassemble the affected part. If a malfunction is
detected, replace part with a new one.
 Always connect the battery terminals when moving the vehicle.
 Turn the ignition switch OFF and disconnect the hydraulic booster assembly harness connector or the battery negative terminal
before performing the work.
 Check that no brake fluid leakage is present after replacing the
parts.
 Burnish the brake contact surfaces after refinishing or replacing rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage.

BRAKE FLUID LEVEL
 Check that the fluid level in the reservoir tank is within the specified range (MAX – MIN lines).
CAUTION:
Turn OFF the ignition switch an d depress the brake pedal 20 times or more to check brake fluid level.
NOTE:
Since brake fluid is in the accumulator in pressurized condition, the reservoir tank brake fluid level should be
lower than the MAX line.
 Visually check for any brake fluid leakage around the reservoir tank.
 Check the brake system for any leakage if the fl uid level is extremely low (lower than MIN).
 Check the brake system for fluid leakage if the warn ing lamp remains illuminated even after the parking
brake is released.
 Check the reservoir tank for the mixing of foreign matter (e.g. dust) and oils other than brake fluid.
BRAKE LINE
1. Check brake line (tubes and hoses) for cracks, deterioration or other damage. Replace any damaged
parts.
2. Depress the brake pedal with a force of 490 N (50 kg, 110 lb) and hold down the pedal for approx. 5 seconds with the engine
running. Check for any fluid leakage.
CAUTION:
Retighten the applicable conn ection to the specified torque
and repair any abnormal (damag ed, worn or deformed) part
if any brake fluid leakage is present.

CAUTION:
 If the brake fluid adheres to the brake caliper assembly and disc rotor, quickly wipe it off.
 Never spill or splash brake fluid on painted surfaces. Brake fluid may seriously damage paint. Wipe it
off immediately and wash with wate r if it gets on a painted surface.
 Never operate the brake pedal with the reservoir cap removed. Failure to do this may cause the scat-
tering of brake fluid.

 The VDC warning lamp, ABS warning lamp and br ake warning lamp turn ON and DTC “C118E” may
be detected in self-diagnosis result for “ABS” with CONSULT-III when the brake pedal is excessively
operated, such as air bleeding. This is not a system malfunction because this occurs due to the tem-
