Tools Required
Caution: To avoid being burned, do not remove the starter/generator control
module (SGCM) cap while the SGCM is hot. The cooling system will release scalding
fluid and steam under pressure if the SGCM cap is removed while the SGCM is still
hot.
- Follow the steps below in order to remove
the starter/generator control module (SGCM) coolant tank cap.
1.1. | Slowly rotate the cap counterclockwise. |
1.2. | Stop rotating and allow the hissing to stop. |
1.3. | After all the hissing stops, continue turning counterclockwise in order
to remove the cap. |
- Test the operation of the pressure cap. Refer to
Pressure Cap Testing - Starter/Generator Control Module
.
- Wash the pressure cap mating surface with water.
- Use the J 24460-01
with the J 46143
in order to
apply pressure to the cooling system.
Important: Do not exceed the pressure cap rating.
- The cooling system should hold the rated pressure for at least 2 minutes.
Observe the gage for any pressure loss.
- Repair any leaks as required.
