Sun Visor







Sun Visor

Removal and installation is described for the right side of the vehicle. Removing and installing on the left side is identical.

Removal

- Turn off the ignition.

If only the sun visor is to be removed, the bolt - 1 - and the sun visor mount - 6 - do not have to be removed.

- Using a small screwdriver, open cover caps - 1 - and - 2 -.

- Remove the bolts - 34 - and - 4 - (2 Nm).





- Carefully pull sun visor mount - 5 - out of mount.


Hold the sun visor. Do not let it hang by the wiring harness.

- Grasp sun visor wiring harness - 1 - with thumb and forefinger as shown in area by headliner opening.






When removing connector from clips as follows, it is possible that the wiring harness may be damaged. If this is the case, the connector will need to be yanked out of the clip. For this reason, carefully pull the connector out with one hand while supporting yourself with the other hand on the vehicle. This evens out the pulling force.

- Hold onto roof grab handle firmly, then pull lightly on wiring harness in direction of windshield until connector comes out of clip in headliner.

- Carefully pull connector - 1 - out through opening in headliner. Pull out just far enough until connector is located under the headliner.


Do not pull harness connector further, since the excess length of flat wire - 2 - is limited and there is a hazard it will shear off.

Flat wire must only be pulled a maximum of 1 cm out of opening in headliner.

- Carefully disconnect connector without pulling on flat wire.





Installation

- To install, perform the steps used for removal in reverse order.

Slide a small foam pipe (part number (535.971.790)) over harness connector when installing sun visor.
