knob.

All Vehicles
µ    5.    Remove the floor console finish panel. (note from me,
I think these are the plastic parts that you can just pull up on and
they pop out, there is a drawing that suggests this is stuff around
the shifter. )

l        Disconnect the electrical connectors.

    6.    Open the floor console glove compartment.

µ    7.    Remove the floor console glove compartment bumpers.

bin.

connector.

µ    10.    Disconnect the floor console electrical connector.

µ    11.    Remove the floor console.

1        Remove the screws. (note from me, there is a drawing
that shows one or more screws in the console storage opening after the
liner is out and one or more screws below the radio area after you
yank the plastic snap on stuff off.  The drawing only points to two
places so there may only be two screws.)

2        Remove the floor console.


Installation

    1.    Note:
        When the battery (10655) is disconnected and
reconnected, some abnormal drive symptoms may occur while the vehicle
relearns its adaptive strategy. The vehicle may need to be driven 16
km (10 mi) or more to relearn the strategy.

        To install, reverse the removal procedure.
