To continue changing the flat tire see “Removing the
Flat Tire and Installing the Spare Tire” later in this
section.
If the spare tire will not lower, the secondary latch may
be engaged and causing the tire not to lower. Do the
following to check the cable:
1. Check under the vehicle to see if the cable is visible.
2. If not visible, see “Secondary Latch System” later in
this section.
3. If visible, first try to tighten the cable by turning the
folding wrench clockwise until you hear two clicks
or feel it skip twice. You cannot over
-tighten
the cable.
4. Loosen the cable by turning the wrench
counterclockwise three or four turns.
5. Repeat this procedure at least two times.
6. If you still cannot lower the spare tire to the ground,
see “Secondary Latch System” later in this section.
7. If the spare tire did lower to the ground, continue
with Step 9 under “Removing the Spare Tire
(Vehicles with the Sliding Rear Convenience/
Cargo Tray)”.
