4. Release the bolts securing the alternator cover to the
engine.

Note:
• To use tool T3880096, insert the tool pegs into
a pair of rotor holes. However, tool T3880096
will not engage with every pair of holes in the
rotor. One of the holes is larger and so the tool
will only engage with certain pairs of holes.

rotating using tool 13880096, and remove the
centre bolt and washer from the end of the
crankshaft.

The bulb becomes hot during use. Always allow
sufficient time for the bulb to cool before handling.
Avoid touching the glass part of the bulb. If the glass is
touched or gets dirty, clean with alcohol before re-use.
When installing the lens, ensure that the locating tang is
correctly aligned to the indicator body.
To install the indicator lens, align the locating tang with
the indicator body and push the lens until the retaining
clips secure the lens.
