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 installed, 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.
3. Check that the front wheels are aligned facing straight ahead.
4. *a Slider
  
  Slide the slider to release the lock, and then disconnect the yellow airbag connector from the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly.
  
  Note
  
  When disconnecting any airbag connector, take care not to damage the airbag wire harness.
5. Disconnect the other connectors from the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly.
6. Disengage the 3 claws to remove the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly.
REMOVE SPIRAL CABLE SUB-ASSEMBLY
Note
- Remove the steering sensor from the spiral cable sub-assembly only when replacing the spiral cable sub-assembly or the steering sensor.
- Removing the steering sensor from the spiral cable sub-assembly without using a lock pin may result in the center position of the steering sensor becoming misaligned. Therefore, make sure to use the lock pin provided with a new spiral cable sub-assembly when removing the steering sensor from the spiral cable sub-assembly.
- When replacing the steering sensor:
