CAUTION: Do not tap on the steering wheel or steering
column shaft when installing the stsering wheel.
NOTE: Before installing the steering wheel, align the
front wheels straight ahead.
1. Before installing the steering wheel, center the
cable reel, Do this by first rotating the cable reel
clockwise until it stops. Then rotate it counterclock-
wise approximately two turns The arrow mark on
the cable reel label should points straight up.
Install the steering wheel with the steering wheel
nut.
NOTE: Be sure the steering wheel shaft engages
the cable reel and canceling sleeve.
Attach the cruise control switches connector io the
steering wheel cliP,
Connect the horn connector.
Install the driver's airbag assembly, and confirm
proper system operation (see section 24).
Check the horn and cruise control switches for
proper operatrons.

NOTE:
. Make sure the steering joint is connected as follows:
a. Insert the upper end of the steering ioint onto the
steering shaft (line up the bolt hole with the flat on
the shait), and loosely install the upper joint bolt.
b. Slip the lower end of the steering joint onto the
pinion shaft (line up the bolt hole with the groove
around the shaft), and loosely install the lower
joint bolt.
Be sure that the lowei joint bolt is securely in the
groove in the pinion shaft.
c. Pull on the steering joint to make sure that the
steering joint js fully seated. Then tighten the ioint
bolts.

ABS Control Unit
Main Control
The ABS control unit detects the wheel speed based on the wheel sensor signal it received, then it calculates the vehicle
speed based on the detected wheel speed. The control unit detects the vehicle speed during deceleration based on the
rate of deceleration.
The ABS control unit calculates the slip rate of each wheel. and it transmits the control signal to the modulator unit
solenoid valve when the slip rate is high.
The pressure reduction control is a three-mode system, that is pressure reduction, pressure retaining and pressure intensi-
fying modes.
Self -diagnosis Funqtion
The ABS control unit is equipped with a main CPU and a sub CPU, and the CPUS check each other'
The CPUs check the circuit of the svstem.
When the CPUS detect failure, they shift to the "system down mode" or the "control inhibition mode"
The self-diagnosis can be classifield into these four categories:
O: Initial diagnosis
@: Except ABS control
@: During ABS control
@: During warning
On-board Diagnosis Funstion
The ABS control unit is connected to the data link connector {16P).
The ABS system can be diagnosed with the Honda PGM Tester.

Troubleshooting Precautions
ABS Indicator Light
I The ABS indicator light comes on when the ABS control unit detects a problem in the system. However, even thoughthe system is normal, the ABs indicator light can come on, too, under the following conditions. To determine theactual cause of the problem, question the customer about the problem, taking the following conditions into consider-ation.
. Signal disturbance
. Wheel soin
. Only drive wheels rotate. Battery voltage fluctuates
2. When a problem is detected and the ABS indicator light comes on, the indicator light can stay on untat the ignitionswitch is turned off, or it can automatically go off, depending on the mode.. Lightstayson until the ignition switch isturned off;When the system is inthesvstem down mode.o Light automatically goes off:When the system is in the control inhibition mode.(refer to symptom-to-system chart)3 The ABS indicator light stays on when the system is reactivated without erasing the DTC, but it goes off after startingthe car.
when the wheel sensor system is faulty and the ABS indicator light comes on, the algorithm of the system automaticallyturns off the ABS indicator light after the wheel speed signal returns to the normal speed. while, when the DTC is erased,the CPU is reset and the ABS indicator light goes off when the system check€d out normal by the initial diagnosis.Therefore, test-drive the car after servicing the wheel sensor system, and be sure that the ABS indicator light does notcome on.
4. When the ABS control unit outputs battery voltage to the gauge assembty, the ABS indicator light goes off.
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
1. The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is memorized when a problem is detected and the ABS indicator light does not gooff, or when the ABS indicator light comes on.The DTC is not memorized when the ABs indicator right comes on unress the cpU is activated.2. The memory can hold any number of DTCs. However, when the same DTc is detected twice or more, the later one iswritten over the old one.
Therefore. when the same problem is detected repeatedly, it is recorded as one DTC.3. The DTCS are indicated in the order of ascending number, not in the order thev occur.4. The DTCS are memorized in the EEpROM {non-volatile memorv}.Therefore, the memorized DTCS cannot be canceled by disconnecting the battery. perform the specified orocedures toerase.
Solf-diagnosis
1. The self-diagnosis can be classifield into these four categories:' Initial diagnosis; Performed right after the engine sta rts and untiltheABs indicator light goes off.o Except ABS control: Performed when the ABS is not functioning,. During ABS control: Performed when the ABS is functioning.. During warning: Performed when the ABS indicator light is ON.2 The system performs the following controls when a problem is detected by the self-diagnosis:. ABS indicator light ON. Memory of DTC
. Mode change to the "system down mode,, or the "control inhibition mode,,.

2. Turn the ignition switch ON (||). but do not start the engine.NOTE: Do not depress the brake pedal when turning the ignition switch.
3 Record the brinking frequency of the ABS indicator right. The brinking frequency indicates the DTc.
4, Turn the ignition switch OFF, and remove the SCS service connector.NorE: The Mslfunction Indicator Lamp (MlL) will stay on after the engine is started if the scs service connector isconnected.
5. Erase the DTC.
