ENGINE ASSEMBLY
a. Before removing the drive plate, put a match mark (A) on thecrankshaft and drive plate for alignment during installation.
b. Remove the drive plate. • Holding the crankshaft pulley bolt, lock the crankshaft to remove the drive plate bolts.
• Loosen the bolts diagonally.
CAUTION:
• Be careful not to damage the drive plate. Especiallyavoid deforming and damaging of the signal plate teeth
(circumference position).
• Place the drive plate with th e signal plate surface facing
other than downward.
• Keep magnetic materials away from the signal plate.
CAUTION:
Use an engine stand that has a load capacity [a pproximately 240kg (529 lb) or more] large enough
for supporting the engine weight.
• If the load capacity of the stand is not adeq uate, remove the following parts beforehand to
reduce the potential risk of overturning the stand.
- Remove the fuel tube and fuel injector assembly. Refer to EM-40, "
Removal and Installation".
- Remove the intake manifold. Refer to EM-26, "
Removal and Installation".
- Remove the ignition coil. Refer to EM-37, "
Removal and Installation".
- Remove the rocker cover. Refer to EM-38, "
Removal and Installation".
- Other removable brackets.
CAUTION:
Before removing the hanging chains, make sure th e engine stand is stable and there is no risk of
overturning.
31. Remove the generator. Refer to CHG-22, "
Removal and Installation".
32. Remove the engine mounting insulator and bracket using power tool.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
• When replacing an engine or transmission you mu st make sure the dowels are installed correctly
during re-assembly.
• Improper alignment caused by mi ssing dowels may cause vibration, oil leaks or breakage of driv-
etrain components.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels incl uding engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-12, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
• Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leak- age at connection points.

System DiagramINFOID:0000000006095108
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000006095109
TRAILER TAIL LAMP OPERATION
The trailer tail lamps are controlled by the trailer tow relay 1 located behind the left side of the instrument panel
(IP). With the combination switch in the 1st position, the BCM detects the LIGHTING SWITCH 1ST POSITION
ON. The BCM sends a parking light ON request via the CAN communication lines to the IPDM E/R. The IPDM
E/R then activates the tail lamp relay which activates the trailer tow relay 1 and sends power to the trailer con-
nector.
TRAILER TURN SIGNAL LAMP OPERATION
The trailer turn signal lamps are controlled by the BCM. When the turn signal switch is in the LH or RH position
with the ignition switch ON, the combination switch sends a signal to the BCM. The BCM detects the TURN
RH or TURN LH ON request. The BCM sends a control signal to the respective trailer turn relay which sends
power to the trailer connector.
TRAILER HAZARD LAMP OPERATION
The trailer hazard lamps are controlled by the BCM. W hen the hazard switch is pressed, the BCM detects the
the hazard ON request. The BCM then sends a control si gnal to both trailer turn relays which sends power to
the trailer connector.
TRAILER BRAKE LAMP OPERATION
The trailer brake lamps are controlled by the BCM. When the brake pedal is depressed, the combination meter
receives a stop lamp switch signal from the stop lamp switch. The combination meter then sends the brake
signal to the BCM via the CAN communication lines. The BCM then sends a control signal to both trailer turn
relays which sends power to the trailer connector.
