I want to replace my cabin air filter on my 2002 Lincoln LS v-8. I don't know how to remove those fasteners or pin type retainers from the cowl cover. Any special tools required or do I just pry them up?
Locate the cabin air filter container on your Lincoln LS. Looking at the engine from the front, you will find the casing on the left side against the back firewall. The cabin air filter is mounted vertically and is approximately 6 by 9 inches and about 2 inches deep.
Remove the cowling cover by pushing in the black cover pins and lightly prying the cover off with a screwdriver. Lift the filter out of the container.
Vacuum the inside of the container to remove any dust or debris. Wipe down the inside and outside of the container and lid with a clean damp cloth, then dry it off completely.
Insert the new cabin air filter into the container and check to make sure it is seated properly. Cover the container by putting the lid back on and gently pushing down to make sure the pins click into place.
The cabin air filter is located on the engine compartment firewall, passenger-side. Open the hood, stand by the right front wheel and you'll see the fasteners to remove forward of the wipers. Fastener's are removed by pushing the center in, then pulling them out. To replace. pull the center out, replace it, then push it flush to lock.
