MFD Battery Replacement

5. Using needle-nose pliers, grasp the battery and rotate it so the lead-

ing edge of the battery is raised away from the battery holder. Pull

the battery out gently.

Tip: The battery will not come out of the holder unless the leading edge of the

battery is raised. Hold the battery compartment, not the wires, while remov-

ing the battery. Pulling on the wires will separate them from the battery

holder.

6. Install a new battery with fingers only.
7. Seal the end of the battery compartment using high strength double-

sided tape between the two compartment halves or high strength

single-sided tape around the outside of the compartment.

8. Make sure the taped seam of the compartment faces the downward

side of the wire harness.

9. Install a cable tie to secure the compartment to the wire harness in

the same location where the previous cable tie was located. Make

sure the battery wires are not stretched tight.

Gauge Cleaning

1. Wipe the gauge face as needed using a clean cloth and a mild soap

and water solution. Wipe dry with clean, soft cloth.

2. Clean the back side of the gauge using a clean cloth and a mild soap

and water solution. Do not remove the electrical connectors or pro-

tective rubber boot. Do not spray the back side of the gauge or the

wire harness with a pressure washer or other water source.

NOTICE: To prevent damage to the lens, do not use alcohol for cleaning. Do not

allow chemicals or sprays to come into contact with the lens.

Immediately clean off any gasoline that splashes on the gauge during

refueling.
