D. - Outer Handle/Bracket & Driver's Door Secondary Inspect
*D. OUTER HANDLE AND HANDLE BRACKET INSPECTION AND DRIVER'S DOOR SECONDARY INSPECTIONUpdated information is shown with asterisks.
Perform inspection on RF, LR, and RR outer handles (and driver's outer handle if found to be suspect).
NOTE:
This procedure measures the dimension of mating surfaces of the outer handle and handle bracket to verify a 0.05mm (0.002 in.) clearance.
CAUTION:
Use care not to damage the measurement surfaces (male and female ends) of the SST when handling and using the tool. If the tool is damaged, it could lead to incorrect inspection results. In this case, order a new tool from MStore.*
1. Using SST SSTE-RC-001, check the outer handle by inserting it into the female end of the SST (holding both outer handle and SST horizontally) until flat surface of outer handle meets flat surface of SST.
NOTE:
Inspection checks dimensions of narrow portion of outer handle.
NOTE:
Be careful not to insert or hold outer handle at an angle, otherwise, it could bind and lead to a false failure.
2. Slide the SST across the narrow area of the outer handle.
3. Slide the SST end-to-end (full stroke) over the entire surface of the outer handle.
- If the outer handle does not fit into the SST, it fails the inspection.
- *If the outer handle fits, but does not slide through the SST, it fails the inspection.*
- *If the outer handle fails inspection, document outer handle type (Standard Keyless Entry or Advanced Keyless Entry) and location (LF, RF, LR, RR) on "Door Handle Inspection Results Sheet". Proceed to "E.REPAIR PROCEDURE".*
- *If the outer handle fits and slides through SST, it passes inspection, proceed to "Handle Bracket Inspection" to check handle bracket with male end of SST.*
Handle Bracket Inspection:
NOTE:
Inspection checks dimension of handle bracket.
4. Using SST SSTE-RC-001, check the handle bracket mating surface. Insert the male end of the SST into handle bracket at the position shown below.
- If the SST does not fit into the handle bracket, it fails the inspection.
- *If the SST does not slide into the handle bracket, it fails the inspection.*
- *If the handle bracket fails inspection, document outer handle type (Standard Keyless Entry or Advanced Keyless Entry) and location (LF, RF, LR, RR) on "Door Handle Inspection Results Sheet". Proceed to "E. REPAIR PROCEDURE".*
- *If the SST slides into the bracket, it passes inspection, reinstall original outer handle. Proceed to "F. CAMPAIGN LABEL INSTALLATION".*
