ing gear, it may be damaged. Refer to Clockspring
Centering in the Adjustments section of Group 8M -
Passive Restraint Systems before installing or rein-
stalling a clockspring.
NOTE: Before starting this procedure, be certain
that the front wheels are still in the straight-ahead
position.

multi-function switch mounting housing. Refer to
Wiper and Washer Switch in the Removal and
Installation section of Group 8K - Wiper and Washer
Systems for the procedures.
(2) Install the turn signal and hazard warning
switch onto the multi-function switch mounting hous-
ing. Refer to Turn Signal and Hazard Warning

(3) Rotate the turn signal cancelling cam in the
multi-function switch mounting housing until the
alignment hole in the one cam lobe is aligned with
the alignment hole in the back of the housing. The
oblong hole in the hub of the cam should now be at
the top, and the locating tab in the hub of the cam
should be at the bottom (Fig. 13).

celling cam.

ing holes on the clockspring case to their respective
