Checking for calibration.
Check your balancer’s calibration approximately every 100 balances. Your whee balancer’s instruction
manual should include calibration procedures. If the calibration procedures specifically for your balancer
are missing, use following steps for zero calibration, static balance, and dynamic balance checks. Th
wheel balancer calibration checks are also described in the flowchart on next page.
a.
Mount an undamaged original-equipment alloy rim and tire assembly (wheel) onto your off-the-car
wheel balancer. Balance the wheel.
b.
Zero Calibration Check. Loosen the balancer wing nut, rotate the wheel a half-turn (180°), and
retighten the nut. Recheck the balance.
i)
If the imbalance is 5 grams or less, the zero calibration is OK. Rebalance the wheel, then g
to Step d to check the static balance.
ii)
If the imbalance is more than 5 grams, go to Step c.
c.
Loosen th balancer wing nut, rotate the wheel ¼ turn (90°), and retighten the nut. Recheck th
wheel balance
i)
If the imbalance is 5 grams or less, the wheel may not be centered on th balancer, or the
balancing cones, the cup, and/or wing nut are damaged, dirty, or inappropriate for the wheel.
You may need to refer to th balancer manufacturer’s instructions to verify the correct
attachments. After making the necessary correction, recheck the wheel balance. If OK, then
go to Step d.
ii)
If the imbalance is more than 5 grams, th balancer requires calibration, Contact th balancer
manufacturer for calibration by their repair representative.
d.
Static Balance Check. Attach a 5-gram weight to the outer rim. Recheck the balancer. The
balancer should detect 5±2 grams of imbalance 170° to190° away from the 5-gram weight.
i)
If the imbalance is within specification, the static balance calibration is correct, Go to Step e
to check the dynamic balance.
ii)
If the imbalance is out of specification, th balancer requires calibration. Contact th balancer
manufacturer for calibration by their repair representative.
e.
Dynamic Balance Check. Attach a 5-gram weight to the inner rim at 180° opposite the 5-gram
weight that was added in Step d. Recheck the balance. Th balancer should detect 5±2 grams of
imbalance 170° to 190° away from both the inner and outer 5-gram weights.
i)
If the imbalance is within specification, the dynamic balance calibration is correct. Th
balancer calibration checks are complete.
ii)
If the imbalance is out of specification, th balancer requires calibration. Contact th balancer
manufacturer for calibration by their repair representative.

5 Balance Wheel
Rotate wheel ½ turn(Zero Calibration Check)
Imbalance is 5 grams or less Imbalance = more than 5 grams
Rebalance wheel
Rotate wheel ¼ turn
Imbalance = 5 grams or less Imbalance = more than 5 grams
Verify wheel is properly centered. Verify
cones, cup & wing nut are clean, undamaged &
appropriate for wheel. Make necessary
corrections, then recheck wheel balance
Attach a 5-gram weight to the rim.
Is the imbalance 5 ± 2 grams at 170-190
degrees away from the 5-gram weight?(static balance Check)
YES NO
Attach a 5 gram weight to the inner rim
180 degrees opposite the weight on the
outer rim. Is the imbalance 5± 2 grams at
170-190 degrees away from both 5-gram
weights?(Dynamic Balance Check)
YES NO

REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
Caution
1. Before removing the steering wheel and airbag module assembly, always refer to GROUP 52B
- Service Precautions, Airbag Module and Clock Spring. Also, set the front wheels so that
they are facing straight forward, and remove the ignition key. If you fail to do this, the SRS
clock spring will be damaged, causing the SRS airbag to be inoperative and serious injury.
2. *: Indicates parts which should be initially tightened, and then fully tightened after placing
the vehicle horizontally and loading the full weight of the engine on the vehicle body.
