    Object Number: 347509  Size: SH
  5. Remove the cruise control actuator cover (1) by applying a slight outward pressure to both sides at the base of the cover.

  6. Object Number: 347503  Size: SH
  7. Remove the cable attaching screw (5).
  8. Remove the accelerator throttle cable (4) from the bracket.
  9. Disconnect the accelerator throttle cable (4) from the actuator lever (1).
  10. Remove the accelerator throttle cable from the cable guide clip.

Installation Procedure


    Object Number: 347503  Size: SH
  1. Connect the accelerator throttle cable (4) to the actuator lever (1).
  2. Install the accelerator throttle cable (4) into the bracket.
  3. Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

  4. Secure with one screw.
  5. Tighten
    Tighten the cable screw (5) to 2 N·m (18 lb in).
