4. Disconnect the spiral cable body side harness connectors (A) and steering angle sensor harness connector (B).
5. Remove the spiral cable fixing screws.
6. Pull out forward the spiral cable and steering sensor.
7. Remove steering angle sensor. Refer to BRC-139, "
Removal and Installation".
CAUTION:
 Never impact the spiral cable.
 Replace the spiral cable if it has been dropped or sustained
an impact.
 Never disassemble the spiral cable.
 Never apply lubricant to the spiral cable.
 Never allow oil, grease, detergent, or water to come in contact with the spiral cable.
INSTALLATION
Note the following item, and install in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
 The spiral cable may snap during steering operation if the
cable is installed in an improper position.
The neutral position is set as follows.
 Carefully turn the spiral cable clockwise to the end position.
Then turn it counterclockwise (a bout 2 and a half turns) and
stop turning at the mark (B) 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.
 Never over turn the spiral cable or go beyond the number of
turns required. (These will cause the cable to snap.)
 Adjust the spiral cable locatin g pin (A) to the steering wheel
locating pin hole (C).

a. Measure pinion rotating torque within ±180 ° of neutral position
of the rack assembly using Tools. Stop the gear at the point
where highest torque is read.
b. Loosen adjusting screw lock nut and adjusting screw and then retighten to 5.4 N·m (0.55 kg-m, 48 in-lb), and then loosen by 20
to 40 °.
c. Measure pinion rotating torque using tools to make sure that the measured value is within the standard. Readjust if the value is
outside the standard. Replace steering gear assembly, if the
value is outside the standard after readjusting, or adjusting
screw rotating torque is 5 N·m (0.51 kg-m, 44 in-lb) or less.
d. Apply thread locking sealant to inner socket and turn pinion fully to left with inner socket installed to gear housing assembly.
e. Install dial gauge at 5 mm (0.20 in) (L) from the edge of gear housing assembly (1), and tooth point.
f. Measure vertical movement of rack assembly when pinion is turned clockwise with torque of 19.6 N·m (2.0 kg-m, 14 ft-lb).
Readjust adjusting screw angle if the measured value is outside
the standard.
 If reading is outside of the specification, readjust screw angle
with adjusting screw.
CAUTION:
 If reading is still outside of sp ecification, or if the rotating torque of adjusting screw is less
than 5 N·m (0.51 kg-m, 44 in-lb), replace steering gear assembly.
 Never turn adjusting scr ew more than twice.
 Replace steering gear assembly when adjusting screw is removed or turned more than twice.

STRUCTURE AND OPERATION
 The 1st one-way clutch and the front brake regulate c
ounterclockwise rotation of the under drive carrier.
NOTE:
The front brake operates only while coasting.
 The 2nd one-way clutch and the high and low reverse clutch regulate counterclockwise rotation of the rear
sun gear.
NOTE:
The high and low reverse clutch operates only while coasting.
 The mid sun gear is fixed by the low brake.
