DI SMOUNT I NG
Disconnect the battery (-) terminal.
Place the steering at the middle point (straight line driving position of the vehicle).
Detach from clips the steering wheel central ornament (cover).
Dismount the steering wheel attachment screw.
Carefully dismount the steering wheel in order not to damage “the tape connector” of the
ro tating contact; ensure that wheels are in the straight line driving position of the vehicle.
Dismount the TORX 20 three attachment screws of the steering wheel half-casing.
Detach from clips the steering wheel half-casings and remove them.
Disconnect the windscreen wiper switch connector and the connector of the turning and lighting
control switch. Loosen th e scr ew (1), u n blocking the under steering wheel control assembly from the attach-
ment co ne of the steering column.
Ex tract the under steering wheel control assembly from the attachment cone of the steering
co lumn.
RE M OUNT I NG
En sure that wheels are in the straight line driving position of the vehicle.
Position the under steering wheel control assembly so that after mounting the two steering
wheel half-casings, the assembly handles are lined up with the instrument panel and the dashboard.
Reconnect the windscreen wiper connector and the connector of the turning and lighting control
switch. Attach in clips the steering wheel half-casings. Mount their attachment screws.
Tighten the screw (1 ) in order to block the under steering wheel control assembly on the steer-
ing column. This operation is facilitated by a cutout in the lower half-casing, enabling access to the
screw ( 1).
Carefully mount the steering wheel in order not to damage “the tape conector” of the rotating
contac t; the steering wheel has an area without grooves on the steering column. Steering wheel
mu st easy enter in grooves.
Replace the steering wheel attachment screw ( TORX 50) after each dismounting ( pre-glued
screw) and tighten it (required tightening moment 4. 4 daNm ). Attach in clips the steering wheel
cen tral cover.
Reconnect the battery (-) terminal.
Check the operation of the under steering wheel control.

Under steering wheel control
The under steering control assembly and the rotating contact included in this one are not to be
separated. The rotating contact is ensuring the electric connection between the steering column
and the steering wheel. This contact is connected with the from wiring by means of wires stacked
as tape-shaped having the necessary length provided to ensure 5 steering wheel rotations (limited
by the wheels camber plus one more for safety).
DISMOUNTIN G
AT T E N T ION !
It is forbidden the handling of the pyrotechnic system (airbag) near heating sources
or open fire, because there is a risk of undesirable starting of the system.
IMPORTANT !
Anytime when dismounting t he steering wheel, it i s necessary to dismount the airbag
connector (1). The airbag is provided with a connector who is short-circuited aft er
disconnecting the wiring connector, avoiding in this way all undesirable starting. Block the UCE airbag by means of the CLIP tester (see chapter 88 “ UCE airbag blocking” ).
The airbag indicator from the instrument panel is on. Disconnect the battery (-) terminal.
Set the steering on the middle point (straight on driving position of the vehicle).
Dismount the two attachment screws T ORX 20 of the airbag to the steering wheel.
Dismount the airbag connector ( 1).
Dismount the steering wheel attachment screw.
Carefully dismount the steering wheel for not damaging the “tape” connector of the rotating
contact; ensure that wheels are in straight-on vehicle driving position.
Dismount the three attachment screws TORX 20 of the steering wheel half-cases.
Detach from clips the steering wheel half-cases and remove them.
Disconnect the windscreen wiper connector, the lights and turning control connector and the
rotating contact connector. Loosen the screw (2 ) unblocking in this way the under steering wheel control assembly from
the attachment cone of the steering column.
Extract the under steerin g wheel control assemb ly off the attachment cone of the steerin g c olumn.
AT T E N T I ON !
It is forbidden the changing of the rotating contact position after dismounting the
under steering wheel control assembly because there is the risk of its damaging. The under steering wheel control – new i tem number- is provided with a pre-c ut
s elf-adhesive tape, stacked on the rotating contact and on the under steering wheel
control body that is not allowing the undesirable rotation of the rotating contact until
its m ounting on the attachment cone of t he steering column.

Under steering wheel control
R EMOU NT I NG
Ensure that steering is on middle point (wheels are in the straight-on driving position of the
ve h icle).
Position the under-steering wheel control assembly so that after remounting the two steering
wheel half-cases, the assembly handles are lined up with the instrument panel and the dashboard.
Reconnect the windscreen wiper connector, the lights and turning connector and the rotating
contact connector. Attach in clips the steering wheel half-cases.
Tighten t he screw ( 2) so that i s blocking the under-steering wheel control on the steering
column. This operation is facilitated by a cutting-out in the lower half-case allowing the access to
the screw ( 2).
Carefully mount the steering wheel in order not to damage the “tape” connector of the rotating
contact, the steering wheel is having an area with no grooves, that must be corresponding to the
no-grooves area from the steering column. The steering wheel must easy enter in the grooves.
Replace the steering wheel attachment screw (TORX 50) after each dismounting and tighten
it to the required moment ( 4.4 daNm).
Reconnect the airbag connector (10.
M ount the two attachment screws TORX 20 of the airbag (required tightening moment is
0.65 daNm) Reconnect the battery (-) terminal.
Check the operation of the under steering weel control.
IMP ORTANT !
Before reconnecting the driver’s ai rbag connector, it is necessary to apply a check-
ing procedure of the system: - check if the airbag indicator from the instrument panel is on, when the contact
is set on; - connect the inert igniter to the airbag connector (to the wiring) and check if the
airbag indicator is off; - set the contact off, connect the airbag connector instead of the inert igniter and
attach the airbag on the steering wheel (required tightening m oment is 0.65 daNm). AT T E N T I ON !
Any doubts regarding a good centering of the rotating contact involves the applying
of its centering method: carefully rotate clockwise the upper part of the rotating con-
tact 2.5 complete rotations (or until it gets blocked), then rotate anti-c lockwise 2.5
complete rotations. In case of a steering dismounting operation, of t he engine or of the t ransmission
elements implying the steering rack or steering column uncoupling, the steering wheel
must be immobilized. After everything has been remounted, perform an airbag system checking by means
of the CLIP tester. If everything is correct, unblock the UCE airbag and check if the
airbag indicator from the instrument panel is on for 3 seconds from setting the contact
on, then it is off and is remaining off. If the airbag indicator is not operating as a.m .,
see chapter “Diagnostic” and check the system by means of the “CLIP” tester. AT T E N T I ON !
All non-observing of these prescriptions may c ause an abnormal operation of the
sy stem, even an undesirable starting of it.
