orientation of the hoses.
Engine coolant will run out when the hoses are
disconnected; drain it into a clean drip pan. Be sure
not to let coolant spill on the electrical parts or the
painted surfaces. If any coolant spills, rinse it off
immediately. 6. Remove the mounting nut from the heater unit.

1. Do the battery terminal disconnection procedure (see page 22-68).
2. Remove the driver’s dashboard lower cover (see page 20-102).
3. Disconnect the connectors from the fuse side of the under-dash fuse/relay box (A).
4. Remove the mounting bolt, and pull the fuse/relay box away from the body.
5. Disconnect the connectors from the back side of the under-dash fuse/relay box, then remove the under-
dash fuse/relay box.
6. Carefully remove the relays using the relay puller. NOTE: Do not use pliers. Pliers will damage the
relays, which could cause the engine to stall or not
start. 1. Install the relays and connect the connectors to the
under-dash fuse/relay box, then install the under-
dash fuse/relay box in the reverse order of removal.
2. Install the removed parts in the reverse order of removal.
3. Do the battery terminal reconnection procedure (see page 22-68).
4. Register the immobilizer system with the HDS (see page 22-329).
NOTE: The imoes unit is built into the MICU which
is part of the under-dash fuse/relay box. Because of
this construction, the imoes must be registered, or
the vehicle will not start.
5. Confirm that all systems work properly.

NOTE:
 Check the vehicle battery condition first.
 Check for aftermarket accessories plugged into the vehicle accessory power sockets (including cell
phone).
 Check the connectors for poor connections or loose terminals.
 Check the radio reception in an open area. Compare it to a known-good vehicle when ever possible.Poor
reception/interference can be caused by the
following:
– The radio station is far away.
– Atmospheric conditions are unfavorable.
– Tall buildings, mountains, or high-voltage power lines are nearby.
– Aftermarket metallic wi ndow tint.
1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
2. Do the seek stop test (see page 23-78).
Multipath interference or weak station.
Operation is normal. Go to step 3.
3. Check if the radio reception/interference is the same in several locations.
Go to step 4.
Multipath interference or weak station.
Operation is normal.
4. Start the engine.
5. Check the reception/interference.
Check the antenna and radio grounds. If OK,
check the charging system and the ignition
system. Go to step 6.
6. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0). 7. Remove the right side C-pillar trim (see page 20-75).
8. Check the connections from the AM/FM antenna
amplifier to the window antenna.
Repair the connections, or substitute a
known-good AM/FM antenna amplifier and retest.
If the symptom/condition goes away, replace the
original AM/FM antenna amplifier (see page 23-87).
Go to step 9.
9. With the help of an assistant inside the vehicle, have the assistant shine a flashlight (A) along each
antenna wire (B). Check from the outside of the
vehicle for any breaks or openings in the antenna
wires (the light shines through).
Repair the window antenna. Go to AM/FM
antenna repair (see page 23-87), or replace the rear
window (see page 20-47).
Go to step 10.
