    IMPORTANT: Before installing the HVAC module to the vehicle, ensure that the HVAC module mounting studs are located in the proper positions.
  3. Install the HVAC module to the vehicle.
  4. Connect the heater hoses to the heater core.
  5. Connect all of the vacuum lines to the heater assembly.
  6. Connect all of the electrical connectors to the HVAC module.
  7. Install the bottom right HVAC module mounting bolt from inside the vehicle approximately halfway into the threads.
    NOTE: 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.
  8. On the Utility only, install the HVAC module mounting stud located at the lower right side of the heater core to heater hoses connection in the engine compartment.
