- the loud speaker grilles,
- the dashboard mountings.
Gently pull the dashboard.
Release the wiring retaining clips.
Disconnect:
- the headlight remote adjustment control
connector and hazard warning light connector,
- the remaining connectors (example : decoder
unit).
Remove the dashboard.REFITTING
When refitting, it is important to ensure the va-
rious wires are correctly routed and have suffi-
cient space so that the dashboard can be correctly
centred.
SPECIAL NOTES FOR REFITTING THE STEERING
WHEEL WITH AIRBAG
Ensure the rotary switch under the steering wheel
is correctly positioned.
If there is any doubt that this switch is correctly
centred follow the method for centring described
in section 88 "driver’s airbag".
Renew the steering wheel bolt each time it is re-
moved (pre-bonded bolt) for a steering wheel
with airbag.
Observe the correct tightening torque (4.5
daN.m).
IMPORTANT
Before reconnecting the driver’s airbag cushion,
check to see if the system is operating correctly as
follows:
•check the airbag warning light on the
instrument panel is illuminated when the
ignition is on,
•connect a dummy ignition module to the
driver’s airbag connector and check that the
warning light extinguishes,
•switch the ignition off, connect the airbag
cushion in place of the dummy ignition module
and secure the cushion to the steering wheel,
•switch the ignition on. Check the warning light
illuminates for three seconds when the ignition
is switched on then extinguishes and remains
extinguished.
If the warning light does not operate exactly as
described above, refer to the fault finding section
and test the system using the XRBAG (Elé. 1288)
(see section 88).

Disconnect the battery.
Lift the rear bench seat (depending on
equipment).
Remove the pump and sender unit steel cover.
Disconnect the electrical connector (1).
Release the clips (2).
Then disconnect the fuel supply pipe (3) (green
marking on the quick-release union) and the fuel
return pipe (4) (red marking on the quick-release
union) using the special pliers Mot. 1265 or Mot.
1265-01.
IMPORTANT: When the pipes are removed, fuel
may be splashed out due to the residual pressure
in the pipes. Take appropriate precautions.
IMPORTANT :
During any operation on the fuel level sensor
you must observe the following precautions:
- Do not smoke.
- Keep all flames or incandescent objects away
from the working area.
REMOVAL OF THE PUMP - SENDER ASSEMBLY
The pump and sender unit assembly may be
removed through the inspection cover under the
rear bench seat and the fuel tank does not have to
be removed.

Tighten the mounting nut on the fuel and sender
unit assembly to a torque of 3.5 daN.m using the
tool Mot. 1264-01, holding the sender unit to pre-
vent it from rotating.
Make sure that the connector is firmly locked and
that the quick-release unions are securely clipped
on (with 2 O-ring seals)
Reconnect the battery.
CONNECTION
Disconnect the connector and the pipes on the
sender unit side.
Remove the mounting nut (5) of the pump and
sender unit using tool Mot. 1264-01.
Slacken the nut, remove the tool, unscrew the nut
by hand and remove it.
Remove the pump and sender unit assembly.
NOTE : If several hours may pass between
removing and refitting the pump and sender unit
assembly, refit the nut to the fuel tank to prevent
it from distorting.
REFITTING OF THE PUMP AND SENDER UNIT
ASSEMBLY
Special notes
Check that the seal is in good condition and re-
place it if necessary.
Fit the seal on the fuel tank first before fitting the
assembly.
Refit the pump and sender unit assembly in the
fuel tank by aligning it so that the indexing arrow
(F) is positioned in line with the longitudinal axis
of the vehicle, pointing towards the rear of the
vehicle.

Rotary switch under steering wheel
This makes the electrical connection between the
steering column and the steering wheel.
It consists of a strip of conductor tracks (airbag)
whose length is designed to guarantee 2.5
steering wheel turns (steering lock plus safety
margin) on each side.

- the horn connector, if fitted,
- the steering wheel bolt,
- the steering wheel after setting the wheels
straight,
- the half cowlings (3 bolts).
Disconnect the connector for the rotary switch
and remove it after removing the three mounting
bolts (E).
Before removing the rotary switch its position
must be noted:
- by ensuring that the wheels are straight on re-
moval so that the track may be positioned in
the centre,
- by immobilising the rotary switch rotor using
adhesive tape.
If it is being replaced, the new part is supplied rea-
dy centred by an adhesive label which will tear off
as soon as the steering wheel is turned for the first
time (fit with the wheels straight).

Disconnect the battery.
Remove:
- the airbag cushion by the two torx T30 bolts
(tightening torque : 0.5 daN.m) located behind
the steering wheel and disconnect the connec-
tor (D),
IMPORTANT: It is not permitted to operate the
pyrotechnical systems (airbags and pretensioners)
near a source of heat or flame as there is a risk of
triggering.
IMPORTANT : If the steering wheel is removed,
the airbag connector (D)
MUST be disconnected.
The airbag has a connector which short circuits if
it is disconnected to prevent incorrect triggering.
