CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Tech Tips


  • Use the same procedure for the driver side of RHD and LHD vehicles.

  • The procedures listed below are for the driver side of LHD vehicles.

PROCEDURE


  1. 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.


    1. Check that the ignition switch is off.

    2. 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.

    3. Check that the front wheels are facing straight ahead.

    4. 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.

    5. Connect the connector to the spiral cable sub-assembly.

      Note

      When connecting any airbag connector, take care not to damage the airbag wire harness.

  4. ADJUST SPIRAL CABLE SUB-ASSEMBLY

    Note

    Do not adjust the spiral cable with the battery connected and the ignition switch on (IG).


    1. Check that the ignition switch is off.

    2. 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.

    3. Check the check window shown in the illustration.

      Tech Tips

      When the spiral cable sub-assembly is centered, the connector is at the top and the conditions below can be checked.


      • w/o Steering Heater:

        With the steering wheel straight ahead, align the matchmarks to check the colored roller from the check window.

      • w/ Steering Heater:

        With the steering wheel straight ahead, align the matchmarks to check the U-turn point of the cable from the check window.

        *a Interlock

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

        Note


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

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

      2. Rotate the spiral cable sub-assembly 2.5 times clockwise from the lock position and check the check window.

        Tech Tips


        • The spiral cable sub-assembly will rotate approximately 2.5 turns to both the left and right from the center.

        • When the spiral cable sub-assembly is centered, the connector is at the top and the conditions below can be checked.


        • w/o Steering Heater:

          With the steering wheel straight ahead, align the matchmarks to check the colored roller from the check window.

        • w/ Steering Heater:

          With the steering wheel straight ahead, align the matchmarks to check the U-turn point of the cable from the check window.
