Fuse EKS007O1

If fuse is blown, be sure to eliminate cause of incident before
installing new fuse.

Use fuse of specified rating. Never use fuse of more than speci-
fied rating.

Do not partially install fuse; always insert it into fuse holder prop-
erly.

Remove fuse for “ELECTRICAL PARTS (BAT)” if vehicle is not
used for a long period of time.
Fusible Link EKS007O2
A melted fusible link can be detected either by visual inspection or by feeling with finger tip. If its condition is
questionable, use circuit tester or test lamp.
CAUTION:

If fusible link should melt, it is possible that critical circuit (power supply or large current carrying
circuit) is shorted. In such a case, carefully check and eliminate cause of incident.

Never wrap outside of fusible link with vinyl tape.

Never let fusible link touch any other wiring harness, vinyl or rubber parts.
Circuit Breaker (Built Into BCM)EKS007O3
For example, when current is 30A, the circuit is broken within 8 to 20
seconds.
A circuit breaker is used for the following systems:

Power windows

Power door locks

Remote keyless entry system

Power sunroof

Rear window wiper

HARNESS CONNECTOR
Revision: August 20072004 QX56
HARNESS CONNECTOR (DIRECT-CONNECT SRS COMPONENT TYPE)

SRS direct-connect type harness connectors are used on certain SRS components such as air bag mod-
ules and seat belt pre-tensioners.

Always pull up to release black locking tab prior to removing connector from SRS component.

Always push down to lock black locking tab after installing connector to SRS component. When locked,
the black locking tab is level with the connector housing.
CAUTION:

Do not pull the harness or wires when removing connectors
from SRS components.

PROPELLER SHAFT VIBRATION
NOTE:
If a vibration is present at high speed, inspect the propeller shaft run out first.
1. Measure the run out of the propeller shaft tube at several points
by rotating the final drive companion flange with your hands.
2. If the run out still exceeds specifications, disconnect the propel-
ler shaft at the final drive companion flange; then rotate the com-
panion flange 90°, 180°, 270° degrees and reconnect the
propeller shaft.
3. Check the run out again. If the run out still exceeds specifica-
tions, replace the propeller shaft assembly.
4. After installation, check for vibration by driving the vehicle.
INSPECTION
Inspect the propeller shaft tube for dents or cracks. If damaged, replace the propeller shaft assembly.

REMOVAL
1. Put matching marks on the front propeller shaft flange yoke and
the companion flange of the front final drive as shown.
CAUTION:
For matching marks, use paint. Never damage the flange
yoke and companion flange of the front final drive.
2. Remove the bolts and then remove the front propeller shaft from
the front final drive and transfer.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL

Inspect the propeller shaft run out. If run out exceeds the limit,
replace the propeller shaft assembly.

While holding the flange yoke on one side, check axial play of
the joint as shown. If the journal axial play exceeds the specifi-
cation, replace the propeller shaft assembly.

Check the propeller shaft for bend and damage. If damage is
detected, replace the propeller shaft assembly.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.

After installation, check for vibration by driving the vehicle. Refer to PR-3, "NVH Troubleshooting Chart" .
CAUTION:
Do not reuse the bolts and nuts. Always install new ones.

2. Select snap rings that will provide the specified play in an axial
direction of the journal, and install them. Refer to PR-13, "
Snap
Ring" .
NOTE:
Select snap rings with a difference in thickness at both sides
within 0.02 mm (0.0008 in).
3. Adjust the thrust clearance between the bearing and snap ring
to zero by tapping the yoke.
4. Make sure that the journal moves smoothly and is below the
joint flex effort specification.

peller shaft flange yoke or the companion flange.
3. Remove the bolts, then remove the propeller shaft from the rear
final drive and A/T.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL

Inspect the propeller shaft run out. If run out exceeds the limit,
replace the propeller shaft assembly.

While holding the flange yoke on one side, check axial play of
the joint as shown. If the journal axial play exceeds the specifi-
cation, replace the propeller shaft assembly.

Check the propeller shaft for bend and damage. If damage is
detected, replace the propeller shaft assembly.
