Steering Angle Sensor Replacement

NOTE:
  • Do not damage or drop the combination switch as the steering angle sensor is sensitive to shock and vibration.
  • The graphic shows '07-08 models.
  1. When the wheels in the straight-ahead position and the steering wheel centered, remove the steering wheel (see STEERING WHEEL REMOVAL ).
  2. Remove the steering column covers (see STEERING COLUMN REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION ) and the cable reel (see CABLE REEL REPLACEMENT ).
  3. Remove the combination switch assembly (see STEERING COLUMN REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION ).
  4. Remove the combination light switch (A) and the wiper/washer switch (B) from the combination switch body assembly (C).

  5. Install the combination switch body assembly in the reverse order of removal.
    NOTE:
    • Do not remove the steering angle sensor from the combination switch body.
    • When installing the cable reel, set the turn signal canceling sleeve position so that the arrow points straight up (see INSTALLATION ('07-08 MODELS) or INSTALLATION ('09-11 models) ).
    • Note that the tightening order is specified for combination switch mounting screws (see step 1 on INSTALLATION .)
