    Note
    Use the force gauge to apply a force of 70 N to the top of each of the carrier pads for at least 10 seconds.
  5. Use a heat gun and IR temperature gun to read temperature of door panel prior to ultrasonic sensor installation.
    Informational PurposesAn informational icon, calling your attention
    Note
    Door panel must be 25º C or warmer. Use heat gun to warm the door panel, if necessary.
  6. Install the new ultrasonic sensor. See Sensor - Ultrasonic - Rear Door - LH (Remove and Replace).
  7. Install the LH rear door closeout panel. See Closeout Panel - Door - Rear - LH (Remove and Replace).
