Caution: The modulator drive gears are under spring load and will turn during disassembly. After removing brake modulator drive gear cover, exercise extreme care not to place fingers into the gear set, since fingers can be pinched by rotating gears.
Notice: Do not allow gear to turn while removing the retaining nut, since the modulator piston can hit the top of the modulator bore, damaging the piston. Place a screwdriver through the holes in the gears (not between the gears) into the recessed hole in the modulator base. This will prevent the gear from turning, aiding in gear removal.
Important: Do not repair damaged motor-pack assemblies or brake modulators. Besides modulator drive gears replacement, repair of the motor-pack assembly and of the brake modulator assemblies is not authorized. Do not oil or lubricate the gears on the motor-pack assembly.
Important: Use care when handling the motor-pack assembly. Replace the motor-pack assembly if the motor-pack assembly is dropped or damaged during handling.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
Tighten
Tighten the nuts to 8.5 N·m (76 lb in).
Rotating the modulator gears will cause the following conditions:
• | The pistons on the ABS brake modulator will be positioned very close to the top of the modulator bore. |
• | The brake bleeding procedure is simplified. |
Tighten
Tighten the 4 screws (6) to 5 N·m (44 lb in).
Tighten
Tighten the 6 screws (5) to 4 N·m (36 lb in).
