1. Disconnect the battery cables. 2. Loosen and remove the battery hold-down bolt and clamp. To install, tighten to 9 Nm (80 lb-in) . 3. WARNING: When lifting a battery, excessive pressure on the end walls could cause acid to leak out through the vent caps, resulting in personal injury, or damage to the vehicle or battery. Lift with a battery carrier. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury. Remove the battery and the heat shield. 4. To install, reverse the removal procedure.

PEUGEOT 306 1.4 / 1.8(16V) and 406 1.8(16V) MODELS FROM 1997 to 2002 – IDLE CONTROL PROBLEMS. SAGEM SL96 (3 row, 55 pin) ECU suffers from damage to idle control CAUSED BY DEFECTIVE COILS. Replacing ECU WITHOUT REPLACING COILS WILL RESULT IN NEW ECU FAILING WITHIN VERY SHORT TIME FRAME. Sagem SL96 Symptoms 1) Car suffers idle control problems manifested as rough running at idle and stalling at traffic lights. 2) Check engine light usually illuminates with coil pack fail and idle control fault
codes. Diagnostic Checklist 1) Check fault codes – if fault code does not identify which coil has failed, REPLACE BOTH. Coil failure almost guarantees ECU failure but run car with new coil(s) – if idle control is correct – and idle control fault code does not reappear then ECU has probably survived

FORD: 2001-2004 Taurus MERCURY: 2001-2004 Sable This article supersedes TSB 03-15-06 to update the vehicle model years and build date information. ISSUE Some vehicles built between 5/1/2001 and 12/15/2003 may exhibit water in the blower case or on the passenger side floor, an inoperative climate control blower motor, a motor that operates on high speed only, and/or a blower motor resistor failure. ACTION Inspect and seal cowl area and install Rain-Hat Extension Seal. Inspect and replace blower motor and/or blower motor resistor if there is evidence of water/corrosion. Refer to the following Service Procedure for details.

REMOVAL & INSTALLATION Except 1996 See Figures 1 and 2 Exploded view of the upper and lower intake manifolds and the CMFI system components The CMFI assembly is mounted to the lower intake manifold. The upper intake manifold assembly must be removed for access. The CMFI assembly includes a fuel meter body, gasket seal, fuel pressure regulator, fuel injector and 6 poppet nozzles with fuel tubes. Should a failure occur in any components of the CMFI unit, the entire assembly must be replaced.

Fault
Central door locking faults including the Central door locking system not operating on one or more doors and the Central door locking system intermittently locking and then immediately unlocking
Cause
Repeated problems of Central Door Locking (CDL) failure have been traced to water ingress into the harness plug connection to the CDL unit within the door, causing bad corrosion to the terminals. The central locking motor / switch and lock assembly are all encapsulated within one unit, and individual components cannot be renewed separately. It is not possible to diagnose CDL faults by disconnecting solenoids / switches etc because the Built in Systems Interface (BSI) control module logs a fault. Until the fault is rectified the CDL will unlock instantly.
