SPIRAL CABLE
• Never impact the spiral cable.
• Replace the spiral cable if it has been dropped or sus-
tained an impact.
• Never disassemble the spiral cable.
• Never apply lubricant to the spiral cable.
• Never allow oil, grease, detergent, or water to come in
contact with the spiral cable.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
• The turn signal lever must be in the neutral position for spiral cable installation.
• Set the spiral cable neutral position by carefully turning the spiral
cable clockwise to the end position. Turn the spiral cable counter-
clockwise 2.5 turns stopping when the locating pin (B) is at the top
most position and confirm that a yellow indicator with a vertical
black line will be shown in the window (A).
NOTE:
If a new service part is installed, the neutral position is already set
with a stopper clip in place and should not be adjusted after the
stopper clip is removed. Make sure the stopper is removed before
installing the steering wheel.
• During steering wheel installation, make sure the locating pin hole
is aligned with the locating pin (B) of the spiral cable.
• Adjust the neutral position of the steering angle sensor. Refer to
BRC-64, "Work Procedure"
.
CAUTION:
• The spiral cable may snap during steering operation if the spiral cable is installed in an improper
position.
• Never over turn the spiral cable or go beyond the maximum number of turns required. (This will
cause the cable to snap.)
• The turn signal lever must be in the neutral position for spiral cable installation.
• Never apply lubricant to the spiral cable.
• Never allow oil, grease, detergent or water to come in contact with the spiral cable.
• After the work is completed, check that no system malfunction is detected by air bag warning lamp.
• If a malfunction is detected by the air bag warning lamp, after repair or replacement of the malfunc-
tioning parts, reset the memory using self-diagnosis or CONSULT. Refer to
SRC-18, "CONSULT
