Measure Absolute Angle At Rear Axle Housing - AR41.10-P-0085-03LW

Model 253 

Measurement of angle 4 on rear axle differential (3) 

An angle that has already been measured can be measured a second time if required. Here, with the Measurement menu displayed, press the STEP button repeatedly until the display shows it is ready to measure the relevant angle.

1. Model 205, 213, 253 with code 990 (AMG vehicles)

   Unscrew screws/bolts from heat sink and remove heat sink.

2. 1. 2.1 On rear axle differentials (3) with contact surfaces (4).

      Clean dirt as well as paint and sealant residue from contact surfaces (4) on housing of rear axle differential (3).

      Remove any unevenness on surface of material using a suitable tool.

   2. 2.2 On rear axle differentials (3) without contact surfaces (4).

      Clean surfaces to the left and right of housing end cover of rear axle differential (3) free of contamination and paint and sealant residues.

3. 1. 3.1 On rear axle differentials (3) with contact surfaces (4).

      Position sensor (020a) on contact surfaces (4) of housing of rear axle differential (3).

      When each measurement is taken, the side of the sensor (020a) at which the spiral cable (020b) is connected must point in the direction of travel.

      False measurements can occur otherwise.

   2. 3.2 On rear axle differentials (3) without contact surfaces (4).

      Position adaptation for universal rear axle differential (3) on suitable area and mount sensor (020a) onto adaptation for universal rear axle differential (3).

      When each measurement is taken, the side of the sensor (020a) at which the spiral cable (020b) is connected must point in the direction of travel.

      False measurements can occur otherwise.

      The meter is ready to take a measurement. The display shows the measured values.

4. Press SAVE button.

   The device saves the values.

5. 1. 5.1 On rear axle differential (3) with contact surfaces (4).

      Remove sensor (020a) from contact surfaces (4) of housing of rear axle differential (3).

   2. 5.2 On rear axle differentials (3) without contact surfaces (4).

      Remove sensor (020a) and adaptation for universal rear axle differential (3) from rear axle differential (3).

6. 1. 6.1 On rear axle differentials (3) with contact surfaces (4).

      Protect contact surfaces (4) of housing of rear axle differential (3) from corrosion.

   2. 6.2 On rear axle differentials (3) without contact surfaces (4).

      Protect surfaces to left and right of housing end cover of rear axle differential (3) from corrosion.

7. Model 205, 213, 253 with code 990 (AMG vehicles)

   Mount heat sink onto rear axle differential (3)
