REPAIR PROCEDURE
INSPECT/REPLACE AND SUPPORT COOLANT HOSE
1. Open the hood
2. Locate and inspect the IRD coolant hose for chaffing damage. (Figure 1)
3. If abrasion is evident and the wear is greater than 2mm (1/16 inch) of the hose wall thickness, replace the hose (PCH001395) as follows:
^ Use a clean pail to capture drained coolant.
^ Release bottom end of coolant hose at the IRD and allow coolant to drain (approximately xx quarts).
^ Release remaining hose clamps and remove hose.
^ Install replacement hose and fill cooling system.
4. Align and secure the inspected or replaced hose within its clip on the battery box.
5. Grasp the IRD coolant supply hose and the protective sleeve, where it passes through the clip on the battery box. (Figure 2)
6. Push the IRD coolant hose rearwards (towards the bulkhead) through the clip on the battery box a distance of 30-35 mm (1-1/4 inch)(Figure 2)
7. Install the cable tie and tighten it sufficiently to retain the IRD coolant hose in position.
INSTALL CAMPAIGN LABEL
NOTE:
Campaign labels may have multiple Campaign numbers written on them if multiple campaigns are performed at the same time.
1. When all specified repairs have been accomplished, prepare the campaign label (LRN0002LABEL) as follows:
a) Place the label on a hard surface.
b) Use a ballpoint pen to neatly write/scribe in the bare aluminum areas of the label the following information:
^ Service Action code "H294"
^ Your retailer code
^ The date of repair
2. Clean all grease and dirt from the radiator support member.
3. Peel the completed campaign label from the backing paper and position it on the cleaned area.
