New center section seal on the left, old seal on the right. Very difficult to remove!

Clean up the valve cover, install a new gasket and the 4 zip ties for the wiring harness.

This is the only zip tie I could find that will work. Grind down the pine tree at the end until it will screw into the threaded holes easily, using lithium grease.

The black and the white guides are what you are looking for, the white one will appear yellow like the balance chain guides.

The tensioner is on the back of the engine. Loosen with a 32 mm socket.

The defective OEM tensioner is on the left, the new is on the right. DO NOT activate before installing! It is normal for the shaft to slide in and out a few millimeters. The oil fill hole is near the washer.

This is the default setting of the light switch. The dash lights should dim or brighten based on ambient light.

This is what the BCM sees from the the ambient light sensor in bright daylight with the engine running. The dash lights should be bright, but they are dim as if it were night.

This is what the scanner reads. It's not the position of the switch, the problem is the sensor.
