CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Note
When the vehicle is parked with the power switch off, if the FC control ECU judges that the FC stack temperature will go below 0°C (32°F), it activates the FC air compressor, hydrogen pump and FC cooling water pump for a maximum of 180 seconds and drains water from the FC stack assembly. When performing inspection or repairs with the power switch off (not on (IG) or on (READY)), disconnect the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal before performing work.
PROCEDURE
REMOVE FRONT WHEEL RH
REMOVE REAR MOTOR UNDER COVER RH
REMOVE FC GAS TEMPERATURE SENSOR
Disconnect the FC gas temperature sensor connector.
Note
Do not allow foreign matter or water droplets to enter the connector.
Using SST, remove the FC gas temperature sensor from the FC air compressor with motor assembly.
Note
Do not use an impact wrench or other tools which subject parts to an impact.
If the FC gas temperature sensor is dropped or subjected to a strong impact, replace it with a new one.
If the gasket has any damage, deformation, or fatigue, replace the FC gas temperature sensor with a new one.
| *a | Protective Tape |
To prevent contamination by foreign matter, cover the openings of the FC air compressor with motor assembly with protective tape.
