   REMOVE SPIRAL CABLE WITH SENSOR SUB-ASSEMBLY

   Note:
   

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

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

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

   
   

   1. Check that the engine 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 aligned facing straight ahead.
