NOTICE:

When disconnecting any airbag connector, take care not to damage the airbag wire harness.

(e) Disconnect the other connectors from the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly.

(f) Separate the wire harness from the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly as shown in the illustration.

Separate in this Direction

(g) Disengage the claw and 2 clips to remove the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly.

6. REMOVE SPIRAL CABLE SUB-ASSEMBLY

NOTICE:

Remove the steering sensor from the spiral cable sub-assembly only when replacing the spiral cable sub-assembly or the steering sensor.
Removing the steering sensor from the spiral cable sub-assembly without using a lock pin may result in the center position of the steering sensor becoming misaligned. Therefore, make sure to use the lock pin provided with a new spiral cable sub-assembly when removing the steering sensor from the spiral cable sub-assembly.
When replacing the steering sensor:
