Actuator Cable:

REMOVAL and INSTALLATION
1. Observe fuel pressure release procedures, relieve fuel system pressure.
2. Disconnect battery ground cable.

NOTE: When battery voltage is removed from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM), all learned values will be cleared and reset to predetermined values. When battery voltage is restored to the PCM, the vehicle may exhibit certain driveability concerns. It will be necessary to drive the vehicle to allow the PCM to relearn values for optimum driveablity and performance.

3. Remove upper intake manifold .
4. Remove screws retaining water pump pulley shield to LH valve cover. Disconnect vent hose and remove water pump pulley shield.
