Remove the engine cover, the power cable of the ECU, and the spark plug connections. At the bottom of the well, you will find the spark plug.

Before proceeding with the disassembly, clean the housing thoroughly with compressed air. Using a 16mm spark plug socket, gently insert it onto the spark plug head and unscrew it. Be careful not to drop any foreign objects into the well. Replace the spark plug with one of the same model, carefully inserting it into the well and turning it gently to ensure it screws in correctly.

If you encounter resistance, remove it and try again. The spark plugs should be tightened with a torque wrench; if you do not have one, screw them in without overtightening.

Proceed with the same operation for the other spark plugs.
