   *a	Interlock	*b	Check Window
   *c	Alignment Mark	*d	Colored Roller
   *e	Top of Flat Cable U-turn	-	-
   	Rotation Direction	-	-

   1. If the spiral cable sub-assembly is not centered, center it.
      NOTE:

      Failure to observe the following precautions may result in damage to the spiral cable sub-assembly.

      • When rotating the spiral cable sub-assembly, make sure to push on the interlock to release the interlock.
      • Do not turn the spiral cable sub-assembly using the airbag wire harness.
      • Do not forcibly rotate the part.

      1. While pushing on the interlock indicated in the illustration, make sure to rotate the spiral cable sub-assembly counterclockwise slowly by hand until it stops.

      NOTE:

      Make sure to rotate the spiral cable sub-assembly counterclockwise. If rotated clockwise, it may be damaged or centering may no longer be possible.

      HINT: 

      The interlock operates at the top and bottom of the connector.

      2. If the spiral cable sub-assembly stops rotating and the connector has moved past the bottom, return the connector to the bottom as shown in the illustration.

      3. While pushing on the interlock, rotate the spiral cable sub-assembly clockwise approximately 2.5 times to move the connector from the bottom to the top.

      NOTE:

      If the connector is rotated clockwise from the bottom 5 times or more, the spiral cable sub-assembly may be damaged.

      HINT: 

      The interlock operates at the top and bottom of the connector.

      4. Check that the spiral cable sub-assembly is in the center position.

      OK

      The connector is at the top.

      The alignment marks are aligned.

      The colored roller or the top of the flat cable U-turn can be checked from the check window.

      NOTE:

      If the spiral cable sub-assembly cannot be centered, it is possible that the spiral cable sub-assembly is broken. Replace the spiral cable sub-assembly with a new one.

Refer to PROCEDURE - Step 3

NOTE: Do not replace the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly with the auxiliary battery connected and the ignition switch ON. Do not rotate the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly with the auxiliary battery connected and the ignition switch ON. When rotating the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly to check the operation of the spiral cable with sensor sub-assembly (checking for abnormal noise, checking the DTC, Data List, etc.), make sure to perform the inspection with the steering wheel assembly installed.

   1. Check that the ignition switch is off.
   2. Check that the cable is disconnected from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal.
      WARNING:

      • Wait at least 60 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) auxiliary battery terminal to disable the SRS system.
      • If the airbag deploys for any reason, it may cause a serious accident.
