      Tech Tips

      When the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly is centered, the part indicated by A is positioned at the top and the colored part shown in the illustration is visible.

    4. If the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly is not centered, center it.

      Note


      • When rotating the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly, make sure to push on the interlock indicated in the illustration to release the interlock mechanism.

      • Do not turn the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly using the airbag wire harness.


      1. A01HY3L

        While pushing on the interlock indicated in the illustration, rotate the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly counterclockwise slowly by hand until it stops.
