Please add the following procedure for cleaning the transfer belt speed sensor to your Taurus field
service manual.
Note
Cleaning of the Transfer Belt Speed Sensor is prescribed at 300K as part of PM but it is
recommended to be cleaned more frequently to prevent SC499 caused by a dirty sensor.
The ITB speed sensor was modified to prevent dust from getting inside the sensor by
improving the sealing (p/n of the new ITB speed sensor: D0746208).
1. Pull out the ITB unit according to the procedure described in the following section of the
service manual:
4. Replacement and Adjustments > Common Procedures > Pulling Out the ITB Unit
2. Release the spring [A] at the front.
3. Release the spring [B] at the rear.
Note:
These springs do not have to be removed. Let them hang free and they will not fall off.
4. Remove the belt tension unit [C] (Screw x1).
