Overhaul



Overhaul
During overhaul, if not already done, immobilize and disable the vehicle.

Immobilize Vehicle



- Chock wheels and set the parking brake.



- Move the shift lever to the P (park) position.

Disable Vehicle (HV battery pack, SRS airbags, & gasoline fuel pump)



- Turn the ignition key off, remove the ignition key, and place on dash.
- Disconnect 12-Volt auxiliary battery.
OR (if the ignition key is inaccessible)
- Disconnect the 12-Volt auxiliary battery.



- Remove the IGCT relay in the engine compartment as shown in the illustration.

WARNING:
- After disabling the vehicle, power is maintained for 90 seconds in the SRS system and 5 minutes in the high voltage electrical system.
- If either of the disabling steps above cannot be performed, proceed with caution as there is no assurance that the high voltage electrical system, SRS, or fuel pump are disabled.
- Never touch, cut, or open any orange high voltage power cable or high voltage component.
