  8. INSPECT AND ADJUST SPIRAL CABLE WITH SENSOR SUB-ASSEMBLY

    Note

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

    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 if the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly is centered.

      Tech Tips

      When the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly is centered, the part indicated by A is positioned at the top and the colored part shown in the illustration is visible.

    4. If the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly is not centered, center it.

      1. While pushing on the interlock indicated in the illustration, rotate the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly counterclockwise slowly by hand until it stops.
