PROCEDURE
INSPECT SPIRAL CABLE SUB-ASSEMBLY WITH SENSOR
| *a | Check Window |
| *b | Matchmark |
| *c | Top of Flat Cable U-turn |
Check that the spiral cable sub-assembly with sensor is center position.
| OK |
|---|
| The connector is at the top. |
| The matchmarks are aligned. |
| The top of the flat cable U-turn can be checked from the check window. |
If the spiral cable sub-assembly with sensor is not centered, center it.
Note
Failure to observe the following precautions may result in damage to the spiral cable sub-assembly with sensor.
When rotating the spiral cable sub-assembly with sensor, make sure to push on the interlock to release the interlock.
Do not turn the spiral cable sub-assembly with sensor using the airbag wire harness.
Do not forcibly rotate the part.
|
Interlock |
|
Counterclockwise |
While pushing on the interlock indicated in the illustration. Make sure to rotate the spiral cable sub-assembly with sensor counterclockwise slowly by hand until it stops.
Note
Make sure to rotate the spiral cable sub-assembly with sensor counterclockwise. If rotated clockwise, it may be damaged or centering may no longer be possible.
Tech Tips
The interlock operates at the top and bottom of the connector.
If the spiral cable sub-assembly with sensor stops rotating and the connector has moved past the bottom, return the connector to the bottom as shown in the illustration.
|
Interlock |
|
Clockwise |
While pushing on the interlock, rotate the spiral cable sub-assembly with sensor clockwise approximately 2.5 times to move the connector from the bottom to the top.
Note
If the connector is rotated clockwise from the bottom 5 times or more, the spiral cable sub-assembly with sensor may be damaged.
Tech Tips
The interlock operates at the top and bottom of the connector.

Note
If the spiral cable sub-assembly with sensor cannot be centered, it is possible that the spiral cable sub-assembly with sensor is broken. Replace the spiral cable sub-assembly with sensor with a new one.
INSTALL SPIRAL CABLE SUB-ASSEMBLY
Note
Do not replace the spiral cable sub-assembly with the battery connected and the ignition switch on (IG).
Do not rotate the spiral cable sub-assembly with the battery connected and the ignition switch on (IG).
Ensure that the steering wheel is installed and aligned straight when inspecting the steering sensor.
Check that the ignition switch is off.
Check that the cable is disconnected from the negative (-) battery terminal.
CAUTION:
Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to disable the SRS system.
Check that the front wheels are facing straight ahead.
Attach the 3 claws to install the spiral cable sub-assembly.
Note
When replacing the spiral cable sub-assembly with a new one, remove the lock pin before installing the steering wheel assembly.
Connect the connector to the spiral cable sub-assembly.
Note
When connecting any airbag connector, take care not to damage the airbag wire harness.
INSTALL STEERING COLUMN COVER
TURN FRONT WHEELS TO FACE STRAIGHT AHEAD
ADJUST SPIRAL CABLE SUB-ASSEMBLY
Note
Do not adjust the spiral cable sub-assembly with the battery connected and the ignition switch on (IG).
Check that the ignition switch is off.
Check that the cable is disconnected from the negative (-) battery terminal.
CAUTION:
Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to disable the SRS system.
