WARNING: Disable the airbag system before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, or instrument panel component diagnosis or
service. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the airbag system capacitor to discharge before
performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the airbag system. Failure to take the proper precautions could
result in an accidental airbag deployment and possible personal injury or death.
NOTE: Take the proper precautions to protect the instrument panel from cosmetic damage.
1. Remove the instrument panel and place it on a workbench See: Body and Frame/Interior Moulding / Trim/Dashboard / Instrument Panel/Service
and Repair/Instrument Panel - Removal .
2. Remove the instrument panel cover from the instrument panel support.
CAUTION: Use care when removing the heads from the heat stakes located on the back of the instrument panel cover. Remove only
enough material from the heat stakes to allow removal of the instrument panel air outlet and demister air outlet assembly from the cover.
3. Using an 11 mm (7/16 in.) drill bit, carefully remove the heads from the six heat stakes (1) that secure the passenger side air outlet and demister air
outlet assembly (2) to the back of the instrument panel cover (3).
CAUTION: Use care when removing the air outlet assembly from the instrument panel cover to prevent damage to the remaining portion
of the heat stakes.
4. Carefully remove the air outlet assembly from the instrument panel cover.
