General Description
C: CAUTION
 Reconnect the connectors and hoses securely.
After reconnecting, confirm that each function oper-
ates normally.
 Be careful that wiring harnesses of airbag sys-
tem pass near electrical parts and switches.
 Wiring harnesses and connectors of all airbag
system are yellow color. Do not use a tester on
these circuits.
 Care must be taken when installing the piping
hose so that no bending, jamming, etc. are caused.
 If even a little oil or grease such as silicon oil gets
in the tank and washer passages, an oil film easily
forms on the glass, causing the wiper to chatter and
judder. Therefore, be careful not to let this happen.
