- Remove the rubber grommet from the floor and place it to one side. It will not be reused.

- Insert the cable with the connector into the hole in the spare wheel well.

Note! Install the rubber grommet so that the cable points to the left on the inside.

- Clamp the cable harness at the radiated heat shield's left bracket using a cable tie from the kit. Install the clip in such a way that the cable harness comes out from the sharp edge of the bracket. Do not tighten the cable tie yet.

- Transfer the connector's cradle to the start of the hook's radius.
- Align the connector's cradle so that it is straight. Tighten it slightly but not too tight yet.

- Clamp the cable at the hook as illustrated. Do not tighten the cable tie yet.

- Adjust the cable length between the rubber grommet, clamps and connector.
- Tighten the clamp on the radiated heat shield's bracket but do not tighten the clamp on the hook.
- Press the rubber grommet into the floor.
- Fold the cradle down with the connector slightly so that it is not in the way when the bumper is attached.

Applies to vehicles with a detachable towbar

- Remove the rubber grommet from the floor and place it to one side. It will not be reused.

- Take three screws, nuts and cable harness from the kit and insert the cable harness together with the rubber grommet into the hole in the body.

Note! Install the rubber grommet so that the cable points to the left on the inside.

- Adjust the cable length from the connector and to the rubber grommet.
- Press the rubber grommet into place.

- Fold up and secure the insulation mats.

- Route the cable together with the ground lead from the rubber grommet. Route it in front of the legs to the control module for the electric parking brake bracket up to the TRM unit.
- Connect the connector to the TRM unit.

Note! If the car has an MMM unit, route and clamp the bracket to it in the same way.

- Clamp both the cables at both legs for the bracket to the control module for the electric parking brake. Use cable ties with and without clips.

- Connect the ground lead's black male connector (1) to the corresponding black female connector (2) on the cable that comes from the cable duct.

- Clamp the cable excess at the cable duct using cable ties from the kit.

Applies to all models

- Press the catches on the cover together for the module RJB-A and remove it.

- Push up the catches on both sides of the fuse holder's upper modules using a small screwdriver and carefully pull off the entire fuse holder and fold it in towards the middle of the car.

The cable must be connected to the spare socket on the reverse of the fuse socket F9 on module RJB A.
- Squeeze the pliers together on the fuse holder catch on the module where the cable is to be pressed in, and pull up.

- Carefully pry the joint between the module's inner and outer parts using a weatherstrip tool so that the inner part slides to the side slightly so that the cable terminal can be positioned.
