Difficulty Level:
Difficult
Total Repair Time:
1- 2 hours
Tools:
Pliers, Screw drivers
Parts Used:
270504001
Split the case by removing the T-15 Torx fasteners.
A long Torx screw driver must be used to remove some of the recessed screws.
Take picture to document how factory installed the original harness
Removed switch assembly and remover two permanent wire nuts
Installed new switch assembly and installed two new crimp style wire nuts.. It is important to place the wires in the exact same position. I used hot melt glue to secure the wires in the channels.

Do not shorten any of the wires.

Be sure to bend the wires exactly as the original wires or the case will not close completely.
