Rear Hub Bearing Replacement here
FInished the wiring connections coming from the cabin to the motor harness working on it yesterday & today. Been sick, so not much energy to put into working outside of work.
I made a list of how I was going to wire this, and I STILL had to go over it a few times & reset the pin locations due to mix-ups. Anyway, that part is done now.
One of the wires I am repurposing is the grey/yellow that was the injector fan ground loop. I'm going to be using it for the ECU cooling fan relay ground signal. That wire is coupled with the OP idiot light, and meet at the fusebox. No practical way to determine which is which, so I just cut one & hoped it was the one I needed to isolate. I lucked out
After that, I decided separate the transaxle from the motor & take it back apart
Can't find anything wrong with it.
Shift gates & forks look fine, turning the shafts turns the diff
Put the case back on temporarily & checked movement
I thought maybe I had locked it in reverse, but there is no practical way for that to happen. Cleaned up the case, applied new HondaBond, re-assembled, and checked movement at the diff in all gears. I can rotate the output in all gears except reverse. I hope that's just cos of the gearing & insufficient leverage.
When I installed the detent pin for the shift gate, and the speed sensor, the diff wouldn't turn again. Pulled out first the detent pin, still locked. Removed the speed sensor, diff turns just fine. This really sucks cos if I had just removed that first & checked the diff I probably would not have needed to dismantle it.
Tip of speed sensor is damaged. Not sure how this became an issue, as the sensor is original, the gear arangement is unchanged.
I measured the depth off the casing to the gear, and it's just shy of 44mm
Hopefully the new sender is about 1mm shorter - I'm not taking it apart again
