5. Remove the mounting hardware bolts and then remove
the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) from the valve, if so
equipped. (See Figure 1).
6. Discard the original traction relay valve body.
INSPECTION
Inspect the mounting location for deterioration, wear, and
corrosion. Replace and/or repair as necessary.
INSTALLATION
See the schematic diagrams (Figure 4) as you plan the
locations to install the replacement components. Take into
consideration the routing of the electrical harnesses, hoses
and orientation of the replacement valves, and the remote
mounting of the ECU controller. Note that the schematics
show the new air lines (some indicated as 3/8 inch) that will
be required for this repair.
Note: All torques specified in this document are assembly
torque and can be expected to fall off slightly after assembly.
Do not re‑torque after initial assembly torques fall off. For
assembly, use hand tools or torque limited drivers.
