CAUTION:
- Carefully remove the butyl tape. Excessive force will easily break the sealing cover - front door.
- If the sealing cover - front door gets broken, replace it with a new part.
- Be careful not to allow the butyl tape to contact any trims and seats because the butyl tape, which has a strong adhesive force, is difficult to remove once it adhered.
1. Disconnect each connector.
2. Carefully remove the butyl tape and turn over the sealing cover - front door within the area where the operation can be performed.
