(5) Connect the negative and positive battery
cables.
(6) Using a scan tool, check for any stored diagnos-
tic trouble codes. Ensure that all vehicle options are
operational.
IOD FUSE
DESCRIPTION
All vehicles are equipped with an Ignition-Off
Draw (IOD) fuse that is removed from its normal
cavity in the Integrated Power Module (IPM) when
the vehicle is shipped from the factory. Dealer per-
sonnel are to remove the IOD fuse from the storage
location and install it into the IPM fuse cavity
marked IOD as part of the preparation procedures
performed just prior to new vehicle delivery.
The IOD fuse is a 20 ampere blade-type mini fuse
and, when removed, it is stored in a fuse cavity adja-
cent to the washer fuse within the IPM.
OPERATION
The term ignition-off draw (IOD) identifies a nor-
mal condition where power is being drained from the
battery with the ignition switch in the Off position.
The IOD fuse feeds the memory and sleep mode func-
tions for some of the electronic modules in the vehicle
as well as various other accessories that require bat-
tery current when the ignition switch is in the Off
position, including the clock. The only reason the
IOD fuse is removed is to reduce the normal IOD of
the vehicle electrical system during new vehicle
transportation and pre-delivery storage to reduce
battery depletion, while still allowing vehicle opera-
tion so that the vehicle can be loaded, unloaded and
moved as needed by both vehicle transportation com-
pany and dealer personnel.
The IOD fuse is removed from the Integrated
Power Module (IPM) fuse cavity when the vehicle is
shipped from the assembly plant. Dealer personnel
must install the IOD fuse when the vehicle is being
prepared for delivery in order to restore full electrical
system operation. Once the vehicle is prepared for
delivery, the IOD function of this fuse becomes trans-
parent and the fuse that has been assigned the IOD
designation becomes only another Fused B(+) circuit
fuse. The IOD fuse serves no useful purpose to the
dealer technician in the service or diagnosis of any
vehicle system or condition, other than the same pur-
pose as that of any other standard circuit protection
device.
The IOD fuse can be used by the vehicle owner as
a convenient means of reducing battery depletion
when a vehicle is to be stored for periods not to
exceed approximately thirty days. However, it mustbe remembered that removing the IOD fuse will not
eliminate IOD, but only reduce this normal condition.
If a vehicle will be stored for more than thirty days,
the battery negative cable should be disconnected to
eliminate normal IOD; and, the battery should be
tested and recharged at regular intervals during the
vehicle storage period to prevent the battery from
becoming discharged or damaged.
POWER OUTLET
DESCRIPTION
Two power outlets are installed in the instrument
panel center lower bezel. Two additional power out-
lets are incorporated into the left rear C-pillar and
the center console (if equipped). The power outlets
bases are secured by a snap fit. A hinged plug flips
closed to conceal and protect the power outlet base
when not in use.
OPERATION
The power outlet base or receptacle shell is con-
nected to ground, and an insulated contact in the
bottom of the shell is connected to battery current.
The power outlet on the instrument panel marked
with a battery receives battery voltage from a fuse in
the Integrated Power Module (IPM) at all times. The
other power outlet on the instrument panel marked
with a key receives battery voltage only when the
key is in the on position.
The power outlet located in the center console
receives battery voltage all the time when positioned
between thefront seatsand key-on voltage when
positioned between therear seats. The power outlet
located on the C-pillar receives battery voltage only
when the key is in the ON position.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSIS & TESTING - POWER OUTLET
WARNING: ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR-
BAGS, REFER TO RESTRAINTS BEFORE ATTEMPT-
ING ANY STEERING WHEEL, STEERING COLUMN,
SEAT OR INSTRUMENT PANEL COMPONENT DIAG-
NOSIS OR SERVICE. FAILURE TO TAKE THE
PROPER PRECAUTIONS COULD RESULT IN ACCI-
DENTAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE
PERSONAL INJURY.
(1) Check the fused B(+) fuse in the Integrated
Power Module (IPM). If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK,
repair the shorted circuit or component as required
and replace the faulty fuse.

viced as a complete assembly (Fig. 1) except for the
following serviceable components:²Key cylinder
²Ignition switch
²Multi-function switch
²Clockspring
²Halo
²Speed control switches
²Driver airbag

WARNING
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/RESTRAINTS - WARN-
ING)
WARNING: BEFORE BEGINNING ANY SERVICE
PROCEDURES THAT INVOLVES REMOVING THE
AIR BAG. REMOVE AND ISOLATE THE NEGATIVE
(-) BATTERY CABLE (GROUND) FROM THE VEHI-
CLE BATTERY. THIS IS THE ONLY SURE WAY TO
DISABLE THE AIR BAG SYSTEM. FAILURE TO DO
THIS COULD RESULT IN ACCIDENTAL AIR BAG
DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE PERSONAL INJURY.

WARNING: THE AIR BAG SYSTEM IS A SENSITIVE,
COMPLEX ELECTRO-MECHANICAL UNIT. BEFORE
ATTEMPTING TO DIAGNOSE, REMOVE OR INSTALL
THE AIR BAG SYSTEM COMPONENTS YOU MUST
FIRST DISCONNECT AND ISOLATE THE BATTERY
NEGATIVE (GROUND) CABLE. THEN WAIT TWO
MINUTES FOR THE SYSTEM CAPACITOR TO DIS-
CHARGE. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN
ACCIDENTAL DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIR BAG AND
POSSIBLE PERSONAL INJURY. THE FASTENERS,
SCREWS, AND BOLTS, ORIGINALLY USED FOR
THE AIR BAG COMPONENTS, HAVE SPECIAL
COATINGS AND ARE SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED
FOR THE AIR BAG SYSTEM. THEY MUST NEVER
BE REPLACED WITH ANY SUBSTITUTES. ANYTIME
A NEW FASTENER IS NEEDED, REPLACE WITH
THE CORRECT FASTENERS PROVIDED IN THE
SERVICE PACKAGE OR FASTENERS LISTED IN
THE PARTS BOOKS.
WARNING: SAFETY GOGGLES SHOULD BE WORN
AT ALL TIMES WHEN WORKING ON STEERING
COLUMNS.
CAUTION: Disconnect negative (ground) cable from
the battery before servicing any column compo-
nent.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to remove the pivot pins
to disassemble the tilting mechanism. Damage will
occur.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - STEERING
COLUMN
For diagnosis of conditions relating to the steering
column, (Refer to 19 - STEERING - DIAGNOSIS
AND TESTING).
REMOVAL
NOTE: Before proceeding, (Refer to 19 - STEERING/
COLUMN - WARNING)(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/RE-
STRAINTS/DRIVER AIRBAG - REMOVAL).
(1) Make sure the front wheels of the vehicle are
in the STRAIGHT AHEAD position before beginning
the column removal procedure.
(2) Disconnect and isolate the negative (ground)
cable from the battery. Wait at least two minutes for
the airbag system reserve capacitor to discharge
before beginning any steering column, instrument
panel, or airbag system/component service.WARNING: WHEN AN UNDEPLOYED AIRBAG IS TO
BE REMOVED FROM THE VEHICLE, FIRST DISCON-
NECT AND ISOLATE THE BATTERY NEGATIVE
(GROUND) CABLE. ALLOW THE AIRBAG SYSTEM
RESERVE CAPACITOR TO DISCHARGE FOR TWO
MINUTES BEFORE BEGINNING ANY AIRBAG SYS-
TEM OR COMPONENT SERVICE. PERSONAL
INJURY MAY RESULT IF THIS PROCEDURE IS NOT
FOLLOWED.
(3) Remove the driver airbag mounting screws
(Fig. 2).
(4) Lift the airbag from its mount and disconnect
two airbag squib, speed control and horn connectors
(Fig. 3). Remove driver airbag. Properly store the
driver airbag out of the way. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/RESTRAINTS - WARNING)
(5) Remove the steering wheel retaining bolt (Fig.
4).
(6) Remove damper (Fig. 4).
(7) If equipped, disconnect the remote audio con-
trol switch wiring from the clockspring (Fig. 4).
CAUTION: Do not bump or hammer on steering col-
umn or steering column shaft when removing steer-
ing wheel from steering column shaft.
CAUTION: When installing steering wheel puller
bolts in steering wheel, do not thread bolt into
steering wheel more than a half inch. If the bolts
are threaded into the steering wheel more than a
half inch they will contact and damage the clock-
spring.
