SPIRAL CABLE INSPECTION

PROCEDURE


  1. INSPECT SPIRAL CABLE SUB-ASSEMBLY (w/ Steering Pad Switch)


    1. If there are any defects as mentioned below, replace the spiral cable sub-assembly with a new one:

      Scratches, cracks, dents or chips on the connector or the spiral cable sub-assembly.

    2. Check the spiral cable sub-assembly.

      2. Measure the resistance between each terminal of the spiral cable according to the table below.

      3. After setting the spiral cable to the center position, rotate the spiral cable 2.5 times clockwise, and measure the resistance as shown. Then rotate the spiral cable 5 times counterclockwise, and measure the resistance as shown.
