Removal
1. Remove the battery as described in paragraph 4.
2. If necessary, remove the air filter and air intake duct components to gain access to the battery tray (see the relevant part of Chapter 4).
3. On models with the electronic engine control unit located at the end of the battery tray, remove the cover and disconnect the electrical connector from the electronic engine control unit. Alternatively, remove the electronic engine control unit support plate bolts and separate the support plate from the battery tray.
