Warning! The car models covered in this manual are equipped with an additional security system (SRS). Before doing any work near the airbag unit, steering column or instrument panel, turn off the SRS to avoid injury if it is accidentally deployed (see Onboard electrical equipment). SRS circuit wiring is easily identified by the yellow color of the insulation.
1. Disconnect both wires from the battery (first negative).
Attention! If the stereo system installed in the car is equipped with a security code, before disconnecting the battery, make sure that you have the correct combination to activate the audio system!
2. Remove the handle from the AT selector lever and the handle from the transfer case mode switch lever (see chapter Gear box).
3. Turn out fixing screws and remove assembly of the central console (refer to illustration Dashboard design).
4. Installation is carried out in the reverse order.
