  1. Install the modulator to vehicle using two mounting bolts (2), four washers (3) and two nuts (5).

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.
