Honda Accord

1. The broad tank of the cooling system is located near a radiator in right forward (4-cylinder models) or the right forward (V6 model) corner of a motive compartment (near the battery).

2. Walk on an overflow hose from a radiator mouth to the top part of a broad tank. Uncover together with the hose connected to it. Remove a tank, having pulled it vertically up and having released from a basic arm.

3. Merge cooling liquid from a broad tank in the prepared capacity.
4. Wash out a tank, wipe it outside and check for existence of cracks and other damages. In case of need make replacement. Level of the liquid which is in a tank has to be read easily through translucent walls.
5. Installation is made upside-down.

1. Disconnect a negative wire from the battery.

If the stereosystem established on the car is equipped with a security code before disconnecting the battery make sure that have the correct combination for input of the audio system in action!

2. Cock the parking brake and prop up back wheels antiretractable boots. A car front also establish to Poddomkratta it on props. At the corresponding complete set remove the antispray screen of a radiator.

3. Empty the cooling system (see the Head Nastroyki and routine maintenance). If replacement of cooling liquid was made recently, keep for further use (see the prevention in the Section Antifreeze - general information).

4. On models with AT disconnect from a radiator of the line of a path of cooling of ATF (see an accompanying illustration). Prepare for collecting the spilled liquid, at once a zakuporta the open ends of tubes and unions.

5. Disunite the cooling system fan electrical wiring socket (see the Section Check of a Condition of Fans of the Cooling System and Chains of Their Inclusion; replacement of fans).

6. Release collars and disconnect from a radiator both (top and lower) hoses. If hoses "stuck" to connecting branch pipes, use nippers, or a knife (with the subsequent replacement of hoses). Disconnect also the hose going to a broad tank.

7. Remove fans (see the Section Check of a Condition of Fans of the Cooling System and Chains of Their Inclusion; replacement of fans).

8. Otboltite also remove small arms of fastening of the upper edge of a radiator to the bearing beam.

9. Carefully take a radiator from a motive compartment. Try not to spill cooling liquid on the painted body panels and do not cut fingers about sharp plates of the heat exchanger.
10. After removal from the car the radiator can be checked for existence of signs of leaks, damages and violations of internal passability of the heat exchanger. Any repair has to be made only in the conditions of a specialized workshop with use of the necessary equipment.
11. Remains of insects and vegetation can be removed from space between heat exchanger plates by blowing by compressed air (do not forget to put on goggles!), or cleaning out by a soft brush. Try not to bend thin plates of the heat exchanger and not to cut about them fingers.
12. Check a condition of rubber support of a radiator, in case of need make replacement of the failed components.

1. Installation is made upside-down. Track correctness of placement of a radiator on the support.
2. On completion of installation fill in in system cooling liquid of the demanded structure (see the Head Nastroyki and routine maintenance), in case of need let out from a path air traffic jams via the special final gate.
3. Start the engine and check it for existence of signs of leaks. Warm up the engine up to the normal working temperature (both hoses of a radiator have to become hot to the touch). Check the level of cooling liquid, in case of need add the corresponding amount of mix.
4. On models with AT check the ATF level, in case of need add.
