Note


  • Do not replace the spiral cable with the battery connected and the power switch on (IG).

  • Do not rotate the spiral cable with the battery connected and the power switch on (IG).

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

  • Do not remove the steering angle sensor from the spiral cable.


  1. INSTALL SPIRAL CABLE WITH SENSOR SUB-ASSEMBLY

    Note


    • Do not replace the spiral cable with the battery connected and the power switch on (IG).

    • Do not rotate the spiral cable with the battery connected and the power switch on (IG).

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

    • Do not remove the steering sensor from the spiral cable.


    1. Check that the power switch is off.

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

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

    4. Set the turn signal switch to the neutral position.

      Note

      If it is not in the neutral position, the pin of the turn signal switch may be snapped.

    5. Engage the 3 claws to install the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly.

      Note

      When replacing the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly with a new one, remove the lock pin before installing the steering wheel assembly.

    6. Connect the connectors to the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly.

      Note

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

  2. INSTALL UPPER STEERING COLUMN COVER

  4. ALIGN FRONT WHEELS FACING STRAIGHT AHEAD

  5. ADJUST SPIRAL CABLE


    1. Check that the power 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.
