This blower motor has undergone some changes in design so the installation procedures have also changed. The original motor was a two piece motor and the wheel was secured with a set screw. GM changed the design to a one piece unit with a fiberglass heat shield and the wheel is pressed on. On some of the models you may need to remove the front cradle bolts so the engine can be rocked forward. This will help keep the valve cover from interfering with the blower motor replacement. On all models; disconnect the negative battery cable.

Hot steam can escape from the expansion tank when the filler cap is opened. Cover the filler cap with a cloth and unscrew it carefully. Note: When the engine is hot the cooling system is under pressure. Carefully open filler cap on expansion tank to release pressure before starting repair work. Hoses are secured with spring-type clips. When repairing only use spring-type clips. VAG 1921 pliers are recommended when installing spring-type clips. The O-rings installed at the quick-release connections must be replaced if damaged or leaking. When installing coolant hoses, make sure that they are free of stress and do not come into contact with other components (observe markings on coolant connection and hose). Perform leak test on cooling system with cooling system tester VAG 1274 and adapter VAG 1274/8.

The GMRC-03 is designed to be used in Cadillac’s that do not have Onstar or amplified systems. It will retain the warning chimes that are lost when the factory radio is removed. The GMRC-03 will also provide a 12 volt switched accessory wire for proper radio operation. *Note: The GMRC-03 can be used in Cadillac’s that come with a factory amplifier; however the factory amplifier must be bypassed and the speaker wires on the GMRC-03 must not be used. Running new wires to the speakers is recommended. If the Cadillac also has Onstar, that feature will be lost.

Exhaust System Removal:
For ease of installation and safety concerns, the use of a lift is recommended and be sure to wear safety glasses.
Prior to installation, be sure vehicle is parked on a level surface and the exhaust system is cool.
1) After your vehicle is properly secured and there is enough clearance to work from under the vehicle, the first step is to remove the oxygen sensor located between the catalytic converter and the center muffler – (See Fig. A). Use a 7/8-inch open-end wrench to remove the threaded sensor.
2) The next step is to determine where to cut the connecting pipe between the catalytic converter and center muffler. Using a tape measure, measure from the front edge of the catalytic converter flange (See Fig. C) back 20 INCHES for the STS or 18-1/2 INCHES for the DTS and mark the connecting pipe.
NOTE: Recheck your measurement

Subject: Starter motor Failure
Model: Ford 2.0 TDCI FWD & 2.4 TDCi RWD/2.0 TDCi FWD
On inspection, the units do not exhibit any manufacturing defects. The premature failure of the unit is due to contamination of the pinion/drive area from metal dust particles produced within the Dual-mass Flywheel, when the clutch wears or becomes overheated. During scheduled servicing, it is recommended that the clutch is checked and if found to be showing signs of wear should be replaced.
