INSTALLATION

PROCEDURE

1. INSPECT SPIRAL CABLE SUB-ASSEMBLY

NOTICE:

If the steering sensor is installed to a misaligned spiral cable sub-assembly, spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly malfunction DTCs, such as DTC B1801, C1231 and C1433, will be stored and it will be impossible to clear them. If this happens, replace the spiral cable sub-assembly and steering sensor with a new one.

(a) Check if the spiral cable sub-assembly is centered. OK: The connector is positioned at the top. The alignment marks are aligned correctly. The flat cable can be seen in the inspection window.

(b) If the spiral cable sub-assembly is not centered, center it.

NOTICE:

Make sure to observe the following precautions, otherwise the spiral cable sub-assembly may be damaged.

(1) While pushing on the interlock shown in the illustration, rotate the spiral cable sub-assembly counterclockwise slowly by hand until it stops.

NOTICE:

If the spiral cable sub-assembly is rotated clockwise in this step, it may be damaged and may no longer be able to be centered. Make sure to only rotate the spiral cable sub-assembly counterclockwise.

HINT:

If the interlock is engaged, the spiral cable sub-assembly will lock when the connector is near at the top or bottom of the rotation of the spiral cable sub-assembly.

(2) If the connector is not positioned at the bottom of the rotation of the spiral cable sub-assembly when the spiral cable sub-assembly is turned until it stops, turn the spiral cable sub-assembly clockwise until the connector is positioned at the bottom as shown in the illustration.

NOTICE:

If the spiral cable sub-assembly is rotated clockwise 5 times or more from the point at which it stops and the connector is positioned at the bottom, the spiral cable sub-assembly may be damaged.

If the interlock is engaged, the spiral cable sub-assembly will lock when the connector is near at the top or bottom of the rotation of the spiral cable sub-assembly.

(4) Check that the spiral cable sub-assembly is centered. OK: The connector is positioned at the top. The alignment marks are aligned correctly. The flat cable can be seen in the inspection window.

2. INSTALL SPIRAL CABLE SUB-ASSEMBLY

(a) Align the 2 pins and 2 guides, and engage the 6 claws to install the spiral cable sub-assembly to the steering sensor. NOTICE: Do not remove the lock pin before the spiral cable sub-assembly is installed to the steering sensor. Do not damage the pins of the spiral cable sub-assembly or guides of the steering sensor. The spiral cable sub-assembly can be rotated up to 30° even when the interlock is engaged. Therefore, make sure that both guides are aligned properly when installing the spiral cable sub-assembly to the steering sensor.

(b) Remove the lock pin from the steering sensor.

3. INSTALL SPIRAL CABLE WITH SENSOR SUB-ASSEMBLY

(a) Check that the engine switch is off.

(b) Check that the cable is disconnected from the negative (-) battery terminal.

CAUTION:

Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to disable the SRS system.

(c) Check that the front wheels are aligned facing straight ahead.

(d) Engage the claw and 2 clips to install the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly.

(e) Install the wire harness to the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly as shown in the illustration.

Install in this Direction

(f) Connect each connector.

7. INSPECT AND ADJUST SPIRAL CABLE WITH SENSOR SUB-ASSEMBLY

(a) Check that the engine switch is off.

(b) Check that the cable is disconnected from the negative (-) battery terminal.

CAUTION:

Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to disable the SRS system.

(c) Check if the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly is centered. OK: The connector is positioned at the top. The flat cable can be seen in the inspection window.
