CAUTION:
 The spiral cable may snap by steering operation if the cable is
installed in an improper position.
 The neutral position is set as follows. Turn quietly the spiral cable clockwise to the end position.
Then turn it counterclockwise (about 2 and half turns) and
stop turning at the point on which the stopper insertion holes
are in the same position.
The service part is installed in the neutral position by the
stopper and can be set without adjusting after the stopper is
removed.
 Do not turn the spiral cable r ashly and also beyond the limit
number of turns. (These will cause cable snap.)
 Adjust the spiral cable locating pin (showed as A inthe figure) to the steering wheel locating pin hole (showed as C in the
figuer).
 Secure the air bag harness wi th the harness fixing hook.
 After the work is completed, make sure no system malfunc- tion is detected by air bag warning lamp.
 In case that malfunction is detected by the air bag warning lamp, reset by the self-diagnosis function and delete the
memory by CONSULT −III.
 In case that malfunction is still detected after the above opera-
tion, perform self-diagnosis to repair malfunctions. Refer to
SRS-23, "
SRS Operation Check".PHIA0887J

COLLISION DIAGNOSIS
For Frontal CollisionINFOID:0000000001327773
To repair the SRS, perform the following steps.
When SRS (except the front side air bag and sidecurt ain air bag modules) is activated in a collision:
1. Replace the diagnosis sensor unit.
2. Remove the air bag modules (except the front side air bag modulesand side curtain air bag modules),
crash zone sensor assembly, bracket andseat belt pre-tensioner assemblies.
3. Check the SRS components using the table below:
- Replace any SRS components showing visible signs of damage (dents,cracks and deformation).
4. Install new air bag modules (except the front side air bag modules and side curtain air bag modules) crash
zone sensor assembly, bracket and seat belt pre-tensioner assemblies.
5. Conduct self-diagnosis using CONSULT-III or “AIR BAG”warning lamp. Refer to SRS-23, "
SRS Operation
Check" for details. Ensure entire SRS operates properly.
When SRS is not acti vated in a collision:
1. Check the SRS components using the table below:
- Replace any SRS components showing visible signs of damage (dents, cracks and deformation).
2. Conduct self-diagnosis using CONSULT-III or “AIR BAG” warning lamp. Refer to SRS-23, "
SRS Operation
Check" for details. Ensure entire SRS operates properly.
When only one front air bag modu le is activated in a collision:
1. Replace the following components:
- Diagnosis sensor unit
- Crash zone sensor
- Activated front air bag and seat belt pre-tensioner.
2. Check the other SRS components using the table below. (Refer to “SRS is NOT activated”.)
- Replace any SRS components showing visible signs of damage (dents, cracks and deformation).
3. Conduct self-diagnosis using CONSULT-III or “AIR BAG” warning lamp. Refer to SRS-23, "
SRS Operation
Check" for details. Ensure entire SRS operates properly.
Only one front air bag may inflate a crash, depending on t he crash severity and whether the front occupants
are belted or unbelted. This does not indicate improper performance of the system. Perform self-diagnosis to
make sure the entire SRS operates properly.

Emission-Related Diagnostic Information" (VQ35DE mod-
els) or EC-633, "
Emission-related Diagnostic Information" (VK45DE models).
Is any malfunction detec ted by self-diagnosis?
YES >> Check the malfunctioning system.
NO >> GO TO 3.
3.CHECK SYSTEM FOR AWD SOLENOID
Perform trouble diagnosis for AWD solenoid system. Refer to TF-25, "
DTC C1204 4WD SOLENOID".
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 4.
NG >> Repair or replace damaged parts.
4.CHECK ELECTRIC CONTROLLED COUPLING
1. Turn ignition switch “OFF”.
2. Set the selector lever to “N” (neutral) position and disengage the parking brake.
