      *a Flat Cable
      *b Colored Roller

      Check the colored roller or flat cable shown in the illustration.

      If the colored roller or flat cable shown in the illustration cannot be confirmed, it is possible that the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly is broken. Replace the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly with a new one.

  5. REMOVE SPIRAL CABLE WITH SENSOR SUB-ASSEMBLY

    Note


    • Do not replace the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly with the auxiliary battery connected and the power switch on (IG).

    • Do not rotate the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly without the steering wheel assembly with the auxiliary battery connected and the power switch on (IG).

    • Ensure that the steering wheel assembly is installed and aligned straight when inspecting the steering sensor.


    1. Check that the power switch is off.

    2. Check that the cable is disconnected from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal.

      CAUTION:

      Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal to disable the SRS system.

  6. REMOVE SPIRAL CABLE SUB-ASSEMBLY

    Note


    • Remove the spiral cable sub-assembly from the steering sensor only when replacing it or the steering sensor.

    • Removing the steering sensor from the spiral cable sub-assembly without using a lock pin may result in a misaligned center position of the steering sensor. Therefore, make sure to use the lock pin provided with a new spiral cable sub-assembly or steering sensor when removing the steering sensor from the spiral cable sub-assembly.
