WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Volvo C70, 2001 Volvo C70, 2000 Volvo C70, 1999 Volvo C70, and 1998 Volvo C70. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Check that the locking screw is in the contact reel as illustrated.
If the locking screw is not in the locking position, the contact reel must be zeroed in accordance with Zeroing Contact Reel .
NOTE:
A new contact reel is zeroed at the factory and supplied with the locking screw installed. "Zeroed" means that the steering wheel can be turned to full lock in either direction without damaging the contact reel.
