Description & Operation

Some models are equipped with standard non-tilt wheel columns. On other models, tilt-wheel column is available as an option.

WARNING: On models with Supplemental Restraint System (SRS), observe SAFETY PRECAUTIONS  . The air bag system is powered directly from the battery, through a fused circuit, and a back-up power supply which is combined with the diagnostic monitor. To prevent accidental air bag deployment, air bag system must be disabled before servicing ANY steering column component. See DISABLING & ACTIVATING AIR BAG SYSTEM  .
