Sun Visor







Sun Visor

The following describes removing and installing on the right side of the vehicle. Removal and installation for the left-hand side is performed in the same manner.

Removing

- Switch 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 bolts - 3 - and - 4 - (2 Nm).






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


Hold sun visor securely. Allowing sun visor to hang by wiring harness is not permitted!

- 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. This is the case if the connector is removed from the clip with a jerking motion. For this reason, remove it extremely carefully with one hand on wiring harness while supporting the hand with the ball of the hand on the vehicle. This allows the pulling force on the wiring harness to be measured out better, thus avoiding rough removal of the connector.

- 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 remove the connector - 1 - through the opening in the headliner. Pull only far enough until harness connector is located close beneath 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.






Installing

- Install in reverse order of removal.

Before installing the sun visor, press the foam tube (part number: (535.971.790) ) over the electrical connector.
