SERVICE INFORMATION
Bulletin Nbr: 541-9030
Date: ........... JULY 1996
Market: US
Correcting a Customer Complaint of Noise or Vibration Coming from the Vacuum Pump

This bulletin contains information about a resistor harness that can be installed to address a customer complaint of vacuum pump noise or vibration following the installation of vacuum pump kit, P/N 47 78 411 (see SI 541-9029). The resistor harness lowers the operating voltage of the pump, which lowers objectionable noise. Normally, the vacuum pump only runs for 1-2 seconds and most customers would not find this brief operation objectionable.

Cars affected

1994 900 models with 2.5 liter V6 engine with automatic transmission and without air pump

1994-900 models with 2.3 liter 4-cylinder engine with automatic transmission and with air pump

1995- 900 models with 2.5 liter V6 engine with automatic transmission and with air pump

Materials

Resistor wiring harness: 48 06 428

Action


1. Unplug the vacuum pump adapter harness at the vacuum pump.

2. Plug one end of the resistor harness, P/N 48 06 428, into the connection at the vacuum pump.

3. Plug the other end of the resistor wiring harness to the vacuum pump adapter harness.

4. Reconnect the negative battery cable.
