Changing the Electronic Actuator
Remove your EM Series BOV
Remove the electronic plug from the EM Series BOV and loosen the hose clamps on the inlet and recirculation hoses. Remove the BOV from the vehicle.
Note! Cosmetic engine covers may be required to be removed prior to assembly being visible.
CAUTION! The turbocharger assembly may require the vehicle to be raised on a hoist or jacked up and securing using jack stands, ensure your safety is not compromised.
Using a 11mm open end wrench
in the flat sides of the solenoid, undo the actuator in an anti-clockwise
direction when viewed from the end. Ensure the wrench is placed on the metallic
portion of the flats and not on the plastic cover.
Ensure the cavity is free
from debris using avoiding shifting dirt into the passages.
Install New electronic Actuator into your EM Series BOV
Ensure the O-rings on your new actuator are correctly seated in the grooves before installation.
Slowly insert the new actuator while turning in
a clockwise direction to avoid tearing the O-rings.
Tighten the new solenoid into the EM series BOV ensuring the wrench is on the metallic portion of the solenoid.
