- If the junction box is open, go to step 5.
- If the junction box is not open, open it, and check if the cables are in the correct position.
- If the cables are not in the correct positions, go to step 5.
- If the cables are in the correct positions, this bulletin does not apply. Proceed with normal troubleshooting.
- Remove the rear hood opener cable from the junction box.
- Remove the hood opener lever from inside the vehicle.
NOTES
- Make sure the cables are installed correctly in the junction box.
- Only replace the rear hood opener cable.
- Close the junction box and install two zip ties.
NOTES
- The zip ties must be 2-4 mm wide to fit properly in the drain groove.
- Make sure the zip ties are installed tightly, and the left zip tie is installed in the drain groove on the junction box.
- Install the remaining removed parts in reverse order of removal.
