NOTE:
. Before installing the steering wheel, the front
wheels should be aligned straight ahead.. Be sure to install the harness wires so that theyare not pinched or interfering with other parts.. After reassembly. confirm that the wheels arestill turned straight ahead and that the steeringwheel spoke angle is correct (road test). lf minor
spoke angle adjustment is necessary, do so onlyby adjusting the tie-rods, not by removing andrepositioning the steering wheel.
Set the cancel sleeve so that the projections arealigned venically.

12. Carefully install the cable reel on the steering column shaft. Then connect the 3p connector to thecable reel sub-harness, and connect the 2p connec-tor to the SRS main harness.

Install the steering column covers.
lf necessary, center the cable reel. {New replacementcable reels come centered.) Do this by first rotating thecable reel clockwise until it stops. Then rotate tt counterclockwise (approximately two and a half turns) untilthe arrow mark on the cable reel label points straightup.

NOTE:
o Do not damage the SRS unit terminals or connectors.. Do not disassemble the SRS unit; it has no service-able parts,
. Store the SRS unit in a clean, dry a.ea,. Do not use any SRS unit which has be€n subjected towater or shows signs of being dropped or improperlyhandled. such 8s dents, cracks or deformation.
1. Disconnect the bsttery negative cable. then discon-nect the positive cable from the battery, and wait atleast three minutes.
2. Disconnect the airbag connector{s}:
NOTE: When disconnected, the airbag connector isautomatically shorted,
Driver's Side:
. Remove the access panel from the steering wheel.then disconnect the 2P connector between the driv_er's airbag and cable reel (see page 24-11).
Front Passenge/s Side:. Disconnect the 2P connector between the tront oas_senger's airbag and SRS main harness (see page 24-11).

Connector Views
To see the configuration of a connector's cavities, look up its view number in the Connector
View section in the back of the book. Each view includes the color of the connector, where it
is located, and what it connects to.
Use the Connector Views to help locate the proper cavity when you need to probe a
connector. lt can be especially helpful if the connector has more than one wire of the same
cotor.
Connector views can also be used to help diagnose multiple symptoms in separate circuits
which could be caused by a single problem in a connector shared by those circuits. Here's
how:
1. Pick one of the multiple symptoms and look up the schematic for that circuit.
2. Make a list of all the in-line and fuse box connectors in that schematic (include page
numbers).
3. Then, in the Connector View section, look up each connector on your list to see il circuits
related to the other symptoms run through one of them. lf they do, inspect that connector
for the oroblem.
Example: The blower, rear window defogger, and the windshield wiper don't work. List all
in-line and fuse box connectors in the blower controls circuit and then check the Connector
View section (sample below). You find that C324 is common to the rear window defogger
circuit and wiper/washer circuit, so you inspect C324 and find the problem, bent terminals.

Connectors - "C"
The cavities (and wire terminals) in each
connector are numbered starting from the
upper left, looking at the male terminals trom
the terminal side (or looking at the female
lerminals f rom the wire side. Both views are in
the same direction so the numbers are the
same.) All actual cavities are numbered, even
if they have no wire terminals in them.

How To Use This Manual
Troubleshooting Tests
Testing for Voltage Drop
Wires, connectors, and switches are designed
to conduct current wilh a minimum loss of
voltage. A voltage drop of more than one volt
indicates a Droblem.
'1. Place the digital volVohmmeter (DVOM) in
the appropriate DC volts range. Connect
the positive lead to the end of the wire
(or to the connector or switch) closest to
the bafterv.
Connect the negative lead to the other
end of the wire (or the other side of the
connector or switch).
Turn on the components in the circuit.
The DVOM will show the difference
in voltage between the two points. A
difference, or drop, of more than one
volt indicates a oroblem. Check the
circuit for loose, dirty, or bent terminals.
co
Testing lor a Short with a Test Light or DVOM
1. Remove the blown fuse and disconnect
the load.
2. Connect a test light or digital
oltr'ohmmeter
(DVOM), switched to the appropnare DC
volts range, across the tuse lerminals to
make sure voltage is present. You might
have to turn the ignition switch to ON:
check the schematic to see.
<-s80RT TOGFOUNO
Disconnecl lheload here.
Beginning near the luse box, wiggle the
harness. Continue this at convenient ooints
about six inches apart while watching the
test light or DVOM.
Where the test light goes off, or the DVOM
voltage drops to zero, there is a short to
ground in the wiring near that point.
NOTE: Always use a DVOM on high
impedance circuits. A test light may not
glow (even with battery voltage present).
