Installation of components is reverse of removal, except for the
following:
When reconnecting the HV cables to the charge port:
-
Remove any adhesive patch residue from the mating surfaces of the high
voltage cable lugs.
-
Remove any adhesive patch residue from the surfaces of the terminals.
-
Push the pawl actuator tab to the left to release the pawl, then insert the
charge port alignment tool into the charge port.
Note: The charge port alignment tool should only be used on vehicles
manufactured for North America and Japan. Vehicles manufactured for all
other countries include the European charge port and do not require use
of the charge port alignment tool during this procedure.
-
Install the bolts (x2) that secure the HV cables to the charge port (torque
9 Nm).
Caution: Do not use any washers other than the captive washers
that are part of the new bolts.
-
Place a paint mark on each bolt to indicate that it has been properly
tightened. Use one continuous motion to mark the bolt head, washer, and the
surface of the lug.
-
Push the pawl actuator tab to the left to release the pawl, then remove the
charge port alignment tool from the charge port if used.
-
Reinstall the pawl actuator cover.
