Steering Wheel Installation

1. Before installing the steering wheel, make sure the
front wheels are pointing straight ahead, then
center the cable reel (A). Do this by first rotating the
cable reel clockwise until it stops. Then rotate it
counterclockwise about three full turns. The arrow
mark (B) on the cable reel label should point
straight up.

2. Position the two tabs (A) of the turn signal
canceling sleeve (B) as shown. Install the steering
wheel on to the steering column shaft, making sure
the steering wheel hub (C) engages the pins (D) of
the cable reel and tabs of the turn signal canceling
sleeve. Do not tap on the steering wheel or steering
column shaft when installing the steering wheel.

4. Install the driver's airbag (see page 24-206).
5. Do the battery terminal reconnection procedure
(see page 22-89), and do these tasks:
• Turn the ignition switch ON (II) and check that the
SRS indicator should come on for about 6
seconds and then go off.
• Make sure the horn and turn signal switches
work properly.
• Make sure the steering wheel switches work
properly.
6. After installation, do these checks:
• Check the steering wheel spoke angle. If the
steering spoke angles to the right and left are not
equal (steering wheel is not centered), correct the
engagement of the wheel/column shaft splines.
• Set the steering column to the center tilt position,
and to the center telescopic position, then do the
front toe inspection (see page 18-5).
