COOLANT PUMP -
REMOVAL & INSTALLATION
1.
Drain the coolant (
2.
Depress the tab (
A
) and unplug the electrical
connector.
3.
Using a razor knife, cut through the heat-shrink
clamps (
B
) on the hoses, and detach the hoses from
the pump. It is nearly impossible to cut the heat-shrink
clamps off of the hoses without also cutting the hoses.
Make sure to have a new set of hoses ready any time
the heat shrink has to be removed. Consider these
consumable items.
4.
Remove the pump bracket-to-FBH mounting nuts
(
C
, right mounting nut shown), then detach the pump
from the FBH. Note: The pump bracket nuts also
secure the rear of the DC Charge Port (DCCP).
5.
Loosen the pinch screw, and slide the pump out of
the bracket.
6.
Slide the new pump into the bracket; don’t tighten
the pinch screw yet.
7.
Install the pump and bracket, and tighten the
mounting bracket nuts to 10 Nm. Connect the power
plug to the pump.
8.
Slide new heat-shrink clamps over the hoses, and
attach the hoses to the fittings on the pump. Using a
heat gun, heat the clamps until they shrink tightly
enough to secure the hoses. Try to twist the hoses. If
the heat-shrink is secure, you should not be able to
turn them.
