SPIRAL CABLE(w/o VSC) INSPECTION
PROCEDURE
INSPECT SPIRAL CABLE SUB-ASSEMBLY
Visually check the spiral cable sub-assembly for defects.
The defects are as follows:
Scratches
Small cracks
Dents
Chips
Cracks or other damage to the connector
OK
No defects are found.
If any of the defects is found, replace the spiral cable sub-assembly with a new one.
Check the spiral cable sub-assembly.

-
Note:When rotating the spiral cable sub-assembly, make sure to push on the interlock shown in the illustration to release the interlock mechanism.
As the spiral cable sub-assembly may break, do not rotate the spiral cable sub-assembly more than the specified amount.
Set the spiral cable sub-assembly to the center position.
Measure the resistance between each terminal of the spiral cable sub-assembly according to the value(s) in the table below.
