CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Tech Tips
Use the same procedure for RHD and LHD vehicles.
The procedure listed below is for LHD vehicles.
PROCEDURE
INSTALL STEERING SENSOR
INSTALL SPIRAL WITH SENSOR CABLE SUB-ASSEMBLY
Note
Do not replace the spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly with the battery connected and the engine switch on (IG).
Do not rotate the spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly with the battery connected and the engine switch on (IG).
Check that the engine 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.
If the airbag deploys for any reason, it may cause a serious accident.
Check that the front wheels are facing straight ahead.
Attach the claw to install the spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly.
Note
When replacing the spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly with a new one, remove the lock pin before installing the steering wheel assembly.
Connect each connector.
Note
When connecting any airbag connector, take care not to damage the airbag wire harness.
| *a | Slider |
| *b | Lock Position |
Connect the airbag connector and check that the slider is in the lock position.
Tech Tips
If the slider is not in the lock position, the airbag connector is not completely connected. Disconnect the airbag connector, check the airbag connector and spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly terminals and connector housings for deformation or foreign matter, and then reconnect the airbag connector.
INSTALL UPPER STEERING COLUMN COVER
INSTALL LOWER STEERING COLUMN COVER
PLACE FRONT WHEELS FACING STRAIGHT AHEAD
ADJUST SPIRAL WITH SENSOR CABLE SUB-ASSEMBLY
Note
Do not adjust the spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly with the battery connected and the engine switch on (IG).
Check that the engine 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.
If the airbag deploys for any reason, it may cause a serious accident.
| *a | Check Window |
| *b | Matchmark |
|
Colored Roller |
Check the check window shown in the illustration.
With the steering wheel straight ahead, align the matchmarks to check the U-turn point of the cable from the check window.
Note
When the following conditions cannot be checked via the check window with the front wheels facing straight ahead, there may be a malfunction in the spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly. In this case, replace the spiral with cable sensor sub-assembly with a new one.
If the spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly is not centered, center it.
|
Interlock |
|
Counterclockwise |
While pushing on the interlock indicated in the illustration, rotate the spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly counterclockwise slowly by hand until it stops.
Note
When rotating the spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly, make sure to push on the interlock indicated in the illustration to release the interlock mechanism.
Do not turn the spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly using the airbag wire harness.
| *a | Check Window |
| *b | Matchmark |
|
Colored Roller |
|
Interlock |
While pushing on the interlock indicated in the illustration, rotate the spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly 2.5 times clockwise from the lock position.
Tech Tips
The spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly will rotate approximately 2.5 turns to both the left and right from the center.
Check the check window shown in the illustration.
With the steering wheel straight ahead, align the matchmarks to check the colored roller from the check window.
If the cable cannot be centered, it is possible that the spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly is broken. Replace the spiral with sensor cable sub-assembly with a new one.
INSTALL STEERING WHEEL ASSEMBLY
CONNECT CABLE TO NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL
Note
When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected.
PERFORM DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM CHECK
CHECK SRS WARNING LIGHT
