  • If the center of the clock spring is not correctly aligned, the steering wheel may not be turned fully or the cable inside the clock spring may be broken, causing the SRS air bag to be inoperative or operated incorrectly.
  • Before removing the steering wheel/air bag module assembly, refer to SERVICE PRECAUTIONS and AIR BAG MODULE CLOCK SPRING .
  • When the steering wheel sensor is replaced or reinstalled, always carry out calibration to make ASC-ECU learn the neutral point. (Refer to STEERING WHEEL SENSOR CALIBRATION  .
