INSTALLATION
NOTE: If the power distribution center (PDC) is
being replaced with a new unit, be certain to trans-
fer each of the fuses, fuse cartridges, fusible links
and relays from the old power distribution center to
the proper cavities of the new power distribution
center. Refer to Power Distribution in Group 8W -
Wiring Diagrams for the proper power distribution
center cavity assignments.
(1) Position the PDC over the mounting bracket in
the engine compartment.
(2) Align the PDC mounting slots with the blades
on the PDC mounting bracket.
(3) Push down firmly and evenly on the PDC hous-
ing until it snaps into place on the PDC mounting
bracket.
(4) Route the engine compartment wire harness
from the PDC through the engine compartment,
engaging each of the harness retainers to the mount-
ing provisions in the vehicle body and chassis compo-
nents. Make sure to make clip attachment into the
rail located behind the PDC. Refer to 8W-90 - Con-
nector Locations in Group 8W - Wiring Diagrams
for more information on the harness routing and
retainer locations.
(5) Install and tighten the fasteners that secure
each of the engine compartment wire harness ground
eyelets to the vehicle body and chassis components.
Refer to 8W-90 - Connector Locations in Group
8W - Wiring Diagrams for more information on the
ground eyelet locations. See the table below for the
proper fastener tightness values.
(6) Reconnect each of the engine compartment
wire harness connectors. Refer to 8W-90 - Connec-
tor Locations in Group 8W - Wiring Diagrams for
more information on the locations of the affected con-
nectors.
(7) Torque nut retaining positive battery cable at
PDC to 96 - 141 N·m (85 - 130 in. lbs.).
(8) Reconnect the battery negative remote cable.
