NOTE: The following procedure was developed by Bergstrom with approval by DTNA.
6. Prepare a 4-inch hole saw by wrapping several layers of tape around the barrel at 3/8-inch from the teeth, to
act as a stop-guide reference. See Fig. 4.
NOTE: The index point for the template is a raised boss on the top of the ParkSmart box that aligns with the
inboard centering mark on the template.
7. Position the template provided in the kit as shown in Fig. 5. Stick a screw driver in the inboard centering mark
and the raised boss on the ParkSmart box to hold the template in place, then mark the outboard center on
the top of the box for the two 4-inch holes.

NOTICE
The inboard 4-inch hole must be drilled first to minimize the possibility of damaging internal parts.
8. Drill the inboard 4-inch hole in the top of the box. See Fig. 6.

Make sure the wiring harness is clear of the area where the second 4-inch hole is located before drilling
the second hole. Failure to do so may lead to wiring harness damage.
9. Clear the area under the second 4-inch hole position of any wiring harnesses.
10. Drill the second 4-inch hole in the top of the box.
11. Trim the "points" created by the overlapping holes as needed. See Fig. 7.
12. Sweep up and remove any large pieces of plastic debris.
13. Remove and discard the nut and vented connector cap.
IMPORTANT: Do not disconnect the compressor harness from the compressor for the next step.
14. Using a mirror as needed, inspect all sides of the block connector for evidence of heat damage such as
discoloration and/or melting. See Fig. 8.
If the block connector shows evidence of heat damage, go to "Compressor Harness Replacement" on page 12
of these work instructions.
If the block connector shows no evidence of heat damage, continue with the next step.

Refrigerant Loop Assembly Replacement
NOTE: Replace the refrigerant loop ONLY if necessary. Replacement of the refrigerant loop will require
clear photos of damage to the compressor connection pin(s) and/or silicone seal(s). Claims for refrigerant
loop replacement without proper photos of damage will be subject to denial or chargeback.
NOTE: The new refrigerant loop assembly includes a new compressor harness and an appropriate compressor
connection cap. The 25-FL703-000 kit is not needed for this repair.
1. Replace the ParkSmart refrigerant loop assembly. For refrigerant loop replacement instructions, refer to
Subject 83.03, 280 of the Cascadia Workshop Manual.
2. Clean a spot on the base label (Form WAR259). Write the campaign number, FL703, on a blank red completion
