Install in the reverse order of removal.
After installing, start the engine. Hold the engine at
3,000 rpm with no load (in neutral) untilthe radiator
fan comes on, then let it idle.
Hold the cable, removing all slack from it.
Set the locknut on the cable bracket {A).Turn the adjusting nut (B) so that its free play is
0 mm.
The should beno crearance.
Remove the cable from the cable bracket (A). Set
the adjusting nut on the other side of the throttle
bracket, then tighten the locknut {C}.
With the cable properly adjusted, check the throttle
valve to be sure it opens fully when you push the
accelerator pedal to the floor. Also check the
throttle valve to be sure it returns to the idle
position whenever you release the accelerator
Deoat.

DTC P0420: Catalytic System Efficiency
Below Threshold
NOTE: lf some of the DTCS listed below are stored at
the same time as DTC P0420, troubleshoot those DTCS
first, then recheck for DTC P0420.
P0137, P0138: Secondary Heated Oxygen Sensor(secondary HO2S) (Sensor 2)
P0141: Secondary HO2S (Sensor 2) heater
1. Reset the ECM {see page 1'l-4}, then continue to
step 2 through 5 to reset the readiness code.
2. Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm with
no load (in neutral) untilthe radiator fan comes on.
Drive for about l0 minutes without stopping. Your
speeo can vary.
With the transmission in 4th gear, drive at a steady
speed between 50 62 mph (80-'100 km/h) for
30 seconds.
Repeat step 4 three times. Between each repetition,
close the throttle completely for 1 2 seconds. lf
the engine is stopped during this part of the
procedure, repeat steps 3, 4 and 5.
Check for a Temporary DTC with the scan tool.
Does the scan tool indicate Temporaty DTC
P0420?
YES Check the TWC. lf necessary, replace the
TWC.I
NO Check for readiness code completion. lfthe
readiness is complete, it was a interminent failure,
and the system is OK at this time. lf the readiness
code is incomplete, repeat steps 2 through 5.1

Heater Unit/Core Replacement
SRS components are located in this area. Review the
SRS component locations (see page 23'13), and
precautions and procedures (see page 23-14) in the SRS
section before performing repairs or service.
1. Make sure you have the anti-theft code forthe radio,
then write down the freouencies for the radio's
Dreset buttons.
4.
Disconnect the negative cable from the battery,
Disconnect the suction and receiver lines from the
evaporator core (see page 21-42).
From under the hood, open the cable clamp (A),
then disconnect the heater valve cable (B) from the
heater valve arm (C). Turn the heater valve arm to
the fully opened position as shown
When the engine is cool, drain the engine coolant
from the radiator (see page 10-6).
6. Slide the hose clamps (A) back, the n d isconnect the
inlet heater hose (B) and the outlet heater hose (C)
from the heater core. 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. lf any
coolant spills, rinse it off immediately.
Remove the bolt and the heater valve, then remove
the mounting nut from the heater unit. Take care
not to damage or bend the fuel lines and the brake
lines, etc.
