Removal
- Remove the engine sight shield.
- Loosen the sight shield fastener (1). Lift the sight shield from center and remove the tab (2) from the slot (3) on the support brace.
- Perform the High Voltage Disabling procedure. Refer to High Voltage Disabling.
Note: Removing the drive motor generator control module sight shield disengages the High Voltage Interlock Circuit (HVIC). The sight shield mounting fastener must be installed and properly tightened for the HVIC to be closed. Failure to properly tighten the sight shield fastener may result in an open HVIC condition and DTCs.
Danger: Always perform the High Voltage Disabling procedure prior to servicing any High Voltage component or connection. Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) and proper procedures must be followed.
The High Voltage Disabling procedure will perform the following tasks:| • | Identify how to disable high voltage. |
| • | Identify how to test for the presence of high voltage. |
| • | Identify condition under which high voltage is always present and personal protection equipment (PPE) and proper procedures must be followed. |
Installation
- Install the sight shield tab (2) into the slot (3) on the support brace. Lower the sight shield to the center and tighten the sight shield fastener (1) to 5 N·m (44 lb in).
- Install the engine sight shield.
- Enable high voltage. Refer to High Voltage Enabling.
Note: The drive motor generator control module sight shield mounting fastener must be installed and tightened. Failure to properly tighten the sight shield fastener may result in an open High Voltage Interlock Circuit (HVIC) condition and DTCs.
