    NOTE:
    • If "click" sound is not heard, rotate it counterclockwise until the ball screw cannot be rotated anymore.
    • Be careful as the actuator may be damaged by applying torque continuously counterclockwise when the ball screw cannot be rotated.
  5. Measure the length (C) from reference plane (A) to the end of rod (B).

    New part length  : 49 mm (1.9291 in.)

    NOTE: Perform clutch wear compensation reset or replace the clutch actuator based on the measured length (C).
    • C: Over 49 mm (1.9291 in.) - Replacement/clutch wear compensation reset is not required.
    • C: 25 mm (0.9843 in.) - 49 mm (1.9291 in.) - When replacing the clutch actuator, perform clutch wear compensation reset to the length

      (C) measured from the old clutch actuator.

      (Refer to Clutch Actuator Assembly - ADJUSTMENT )

    • C: Less than 25 mm (0.9843 in.) - Replace the dual clutch assembly, clutch actuator assembly and engagement bearing.
