| 4. | Disconnect the radiator upper hose (A).
|
| 5. | Disconnect the heater hoses (A).
|
| 6. | Disconnect the wiring connectors and harness clamps and remove the connector brackets around the water temperature control assembly.
|
| 7. | Disconnect the degassing hose (A) and EGR cooler hose (B).
|
| 8. | Disconnect the oil cooler hose (A).
|
| 9. | Disconnect the water temperature sensor connector (A).
|
| 10. | Remove the water temperature control assembly (A).
|
| 11. | Install in the reverse order of removal. |
| 1. | Disconnect the battery negative terminal. |

|
| 7. | Remove the heater pipe (A).
|
| 8. | Install in the reverse order of removal. |
| 9. | Fill the radiator with coolant and check for leaks. (Refer to Cooling System - "Coolant") |
| 10. | Start engine and check for leaks. |
| 11. | Recheck the coolant level. |
| Inspection |
| 1. | Remove the outlet fitting, coolant temperature sensor, bracket and gasket from the coolant temperature control assembly. |
| 2. | Submerge the coolant temperature control assembly with the thermostat in the antifreeze and heat the antifreeze slowly.
|
| 3. | Check the valve opening temperature.
If the valve opening temperature is not as specified, replace the thermostat. |
| 4. | Check the valve lift.
If the valve lift is not as specified, replace the thermostat. |
