  • B006HUP

    To prevent electric shock, wear insulated gloves when working on wire harnesses and components of the high voltage system.

  • B006IVY

    To prevent burns, do not touch the engine, exhaust manifold or other high temperature components while the engine is hot.

  • B006J7EC01
    *a An Object Exceeding Weight Limit of Engine Lifter

    The engine assembly with hybrid vehicle transaxle assembly is very heavy. Be sure to follow the procedure described in the repair manual, or the engine lifter may suddenly drop or the engine assembly with transaxle may fall off the engine lifter.

PROCEDURE


  1. PERFORM RESOLVER INITIALIZATION

    Note

    If it is necessary to replace the hybrid vehicle transaxle assembly, make sure to perform resolver initialization before starting work.
