NOTE:
During work that involves removing the steering wheel and/or contact reel, it is important that the steering wheel be installed such that it is located correctly with regard to the front wheels and that the contact reel is set in the middle position. The contact reel is supplied in the middle position with a locking screw installed. If this locking screw is unfastened the contact reel has to be zeroed again.
CAUTION:
The battery must not be connected when the steering wheel module is removed or replaced.
WARNING:
Under no circumstances use an ohmmeter or other live measuring instrument to measure the resistance in the steering wheel module. The cabling may not be tested with a connected steering wheel module because this could be deployed.
