(27) Install lower steering column cover/knee
blocker (Fig. 62).
(28) Install silencer panel below lower steering col-
umn cover/knee blocker.
NOTE: When reconnecting the battery on a vehicle
that has had the airbag module removed, the fol-
lowing procedure should be used.
(29) Reconnect ground cable to negative post of
battery in following manor:
(a) Connect scan tool (DRBIIIt) to data link
diagnostic connector located below steering column.
(b) Turn ignition key to ON position. Exit vehi-
cle with scan tool leaving scan tool harness
plugged in.
(c) Ensuring that there are no occupants in vehi-
cle, connect ground (-) cable to the negative post of
the battery.
(d) Using scan tool, read and record any airbag
fault codes. Refer to Appropriate Diagnostic Infor-
mation if any faults are found.
(e) Through drivers open window, Reach around
back of steering wheel (between steering wheel and
instrument cluster) and turn ignition key to OFF,
then back ON while observing instrument cluster
airbag indicator lamp. It should go on for six to
eight seconds, then go out. This action indicates
that airbag system is functioning normally. If air-
bag indicator lamp fails to light, blinks on and off,
or goes on and stays on, there is an airbag system
malfunction. Refer to Appropriate Diagnostic Infor-
mation to diagnose the system malfunction.
(30) Using scan tool (DRBIIIt), check for and clear
any existing adjustable pedal fault codes. The adjust-
able pedal system is now activated.
(31) Turn key to OFF and remove scan tool from
vehicle.
(32) Test operation of adjustable pedals, memory
seats (if equipped), RKE (if equipped), and all func-
tions that are steering column operated. If applica-
ble, reset the radio and the clock.
(33) Road test the vehicle to ensure proper opera-
tion of the steering and brake systems.

POWER BRAKE BOOSTER
DESCRIPTION
The power brake booster mounts on the engine
compartment side of the dash panel. It is connected
to the brake pedal by the input (push) rod (Fig. 75).
The master cylinder is bolted to the front of the
booster. A vacuum line connects the power brake
booster to the intake manifold.

CLEANING
Clean all foreign debris from belt pulley grooves.
The belt pulleys must be free of oil, grease, and cool-
ants before installing the drive belt.
INSPECTION
Belt replacement under any or all of the following
conditions is required:
²Excessive wear
²Frayed cords
²Severe glazing
Poly-V Belt system may develop minor cracks
across the ribbed side (due to reverse bending). These
minor cracks are considered normal and acceptable.
Parallel cracks are not (Fig. 6).
NOTE: Do not use any type of belt dressing or
restorer on Poly-V Belts.
INSTALLATION
GENERATOR AND AIR CONDITIONING BELT
(1) Install belt onto all pulleys except for the
crankshaft (Fig. 7).
(2) Rotate belt tensioner clockwise until belt can
be installed onto the crankshaft pulley (Fig. 4).
Slowly release belt tensioner.
(3) Verify belt is properly routed and engaged on
all pulleys (Fig. 7).
(4) Install drive belt shield (Fig. 8) and lower vehi-
cle.
