Removal and Installation: Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Nissan Maxima. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Set the spiral cable neutral position.
    1. Slowly turn the spiral cable clockwise to the end position.
    2. Next, turn it counterclockwise (about 2.5 turns) then stop turning at the point when the alignment arrows (B) are directly across from each other.
    3. Rotate the spiral cable slightly so the locating pin (2) is positioned at the top.
    NOTE: A service part is installed in the neutral position with a stopper clip in place and should not be adjusted after the stopper clip is removed.
  2. Install the spiral cable in the reverse order of removal.
  3. Align the locating hole (1) at the top of the steering wheel with the locating pin of spiral cable during installation.
CAUTION:
  • The spiral cable may snap by steering operation if the cable is installed in an improper position.
  • Do not turn the spiral cable quickly or beyond the limit number of turns. (This can cause the cable to snap.)
  • After the work is completed, make sure no system malfunction is detected by air bag warning lamp.
  • In case a malfunction is detected by the air bag warning lamp, reset with the self-diagnosis function and delete the memory with CONSULT-III.
  • If a malfunction is still detected after the above operation, perform self-diagnosis to repair malfunctions. Refer to "SRS OPERATION CHECK ".
