HINT.

  1. CHECK CONNECTORS 
    1. Turn the engine switch off.
    2. Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal, and wait for at least 90 seconds.
    3. Check that the connectors are properly connected to the steering pad, spiral cable and center airbag sensor assembly

      OK: The connectors are properly connected. 

      HINT:

      If the connectors are not connected securely, reconnect the connectors and proceed to the next inspection

      NOTE:
      • Do not forcibly insert SST into the terminals of the connector when connecting.
      • Insert SST straight into the terminals of the connector.
