INSTALLATION
WARNING: To avoid personal injury or death, on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the supplemental
restraint system before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, occupant classification sys-
tem, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect
and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge
before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the supplemental
restraint system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.
1. Position the right multi-function switch (2) close
enough to the mounting bracket (3) integral to the
right side of the clockspring to reconnect the
jumper wire harness connector (1) to the connector
receptacle on the inboard side of the switch hous-
ing.
2. Align the slide tab on the bottom of the switch
housing with the channel integral to the clockspring
mounting bracket, then slide the switch into the
bracket until it is firmly seated.
3. Install and tighten the screw (2) that secures the
mounting tab on the back of the right multi-function
switch (1) to the mounting bracket on the clock-
spring (3).

steering column. (Refer to 19 - STEERING/COL-
