>> B << Clock Spring Installation

CAUTION:

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.
When aligning the clock spring neutral position mark, perform with the clock spring independently. If performed with the steering wheel sensor installed, the steering wheel sensor may be damaged.

Align the mating marks of the clock spring.

< Alignment of mating marks >

Turn the clock spring clockwise fully.
Turn the clock spring counterclockwise approximately two and 9/10 turns to align the mating marks.
Check that the orange roller can be seen from the window for checking the neutral point when the mating marks are aligned.
NOTE: If the orange roller cannot be seen or black roller can be seen, the neutral point is not aligned correctly.
