    IMPORTANT: If replacing the sensor, a new sensor MUST come with a pin installed. If pin is not installed, return and reorder sensor. Do not apply force to the sensor and the bearing assembly in a sideways direction.
    When reusing the sensor you must install a pin into the sensor before it is removed from the steering shaft. By not installing a pin into the sensor it will cause the sensor to lose its centering position and must be discarded.
    Pin diameter must be in the range of 1.0-2.0 mm.
  3. Remove the intermediate shaft from the steering column shaft. Refer to Intermediate Steering Shaft Replacement .
  4. Remove the sensor connector by using a suitable tool in order to pull the connector down around the right side of the steering column for accessibility.
  5. Remove the sensor from the steering shaft.
