  1. Before installing the steering wheel, align the front wheels straight ahead.
  2. If not already done, do the battery terminal disconnection procedure (see USING THE GR8 BATTERY DIAGNOSTIC STATION ), then wait at least 3 minutes before starting work.
  3. Set the turn signal canceling sleeve (A) so that the projections (B) are aligned vertically.

  5. Install the steering column covers.
  6. Before installing the steering wheel, make sure the front wheels are pointing 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 turns) until the arrow mark (B) on the cable reel label points straight up.

  11. Clear any DTCs with the HDS (see HOW TO CLEAR DTCS  ).
  12. After installing the cable reel, confirm proper system operation:
    • Turn the ignition switch to ON (II); the SRS indicator should come on for about 6 seconds and then goes off.
    • After the SRS indicator has turned off, turn the steering wheel fully left and right to confirm the SRS indicator does not come on.
    • Make sure the horn and turn signal switches work properly.
    • Make sure the cruise control combination switch work.
    • Make sure the audio remote switch work.
    • Make sure the multi-information switch work.
    • Make sure the HFL-navigation voice control switch (with navigation) work.
    • Make sure the HFL switch (without navigation) work.
    • Make sure the distance switch work.
  13. After installation, 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.
