Caution
•  If the lever position exceeds the operation range shown in the figure, the circuit in the actuator could be damaged. Always perform an actuator operation inspection with the lever movement within the range shown in the figure.

1.  Slide the front seat (RH) forward.

2.  Slide the front seat (RH) rearward approx. 50 mm {2.0 in}.

3.  Disconnect the negative battery terminal. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION.)

4.  Remove the following parts:

(1)  Selector lever knob (See AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE SHIFT MECHANISM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
(2)  Shift panel (See SHIFT PANEL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
(3)  Console side panel (See CONSOLE SIDE PANEL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
(4)  Front console (See FRONT CONSOLE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
(5)  Side wall (See SIDE WALL REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
(6)  Rear console (See REAR CONSOLE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)

5.  Remove the rear air mix actuator. (See REAR AIR MIX ACTUATOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
