Fit the flap indicator
Assemble the flap indicator: paint the outside of the indicator washer red and mark the 3 flap
positions in a dark colour. Push the inner cable through the indicator body and through the
indicator washer then all the way into the long end of the indicator body.
Slide the washer to the long end of the indicator body as circled above and crimp it to the
inner cable. Using the supplied crimping tool, crimp the indicator body to the outer cable.
Screw the “L” shaped bracket to the bottom of the motor assembly with a countersunk screw
(circled in yellow above), then drop the AN3-16A bolt down through the actuating shaft and
add the 3 spacers and the 2 retaining nuts (circled in green above).
Position the flap indicator on the right-hand
windscreen pillar so that the cable follows the
line of the door opening and remains clear of
the opening and screw the flap indicator and
cable into place with the supplied nylon clips
as shown at right.
Check the outer cable for length and trim as
required then crimp the threaded end in place.
Fit the threaded cable end to the “L” bracket
on the motor with 2 thin nuts and fit the inner
cable to the long bolt through the actuating
shaft, all as shown in the photo above.
Check that all bolts and nuts are tightened, route the power lead behind the motor assembly
and down behind the door opening for later connection in the
