dures described in the EPS removal section of this
chapter.
2. Disconnect the EPS motor harness from the EPS
module.

to the EPS, indicated by the arrows in Figure 3B.12,
using a 3/8” wrench.
4. Lift the motor assembly off of the EPS.
5. Mount the motor in a vise.
NOTE: Position the motor so that the vise jaws clamp the
motor base, to prevent damage to the motor.

side of a 12 volt power supply capable of producing
40 amps.
NOTE: The tractor’s battery or a jumper box can be used
as a power supply.
