Inspection [12/2019 - ]: Procedure

  1. INSPECT SPIRAL CABLE SUB-ASSEMBLY 
    NOTE:
    • Do not remove the steering sensor from the spiral cable sub-assembly when inspecting the spiral cable sub-assembly.
    • Remove the steering sensor from the spiral cable sub-assembly only when replacing the spiral cable sub-assembly.
    1. Visually check the spiral cable sub-assembly for defects.
      1. The defects are as follows:
        • Scratches
        • Small cracks
        • Dents
        • Chips
        • Cracks or other damage to the connector

          OK

          No defects are found.

        If any of the defects is found, replace the spiral cable sub-assembly with a new one.

    2. Check the spiral cable sub-assembly.

      (Spiral Cable Sub-assembly)
      *b Color: Light Green
      *c Color: Black - -
      Interlock - -
      NOTE:
      • When rotating the spiral cable sub-assembly, make sure to push on the interlock shown in the illustration to release the interlock mechanism.
      • As the spiral cable sub-assembly may break, do not rotate the spiral cable sub-assembly more than the specified amount.
      1. Set the spiral cable sub-assembly to the center position.

        See step  1 [12/2019 - 10/2022], or See step  1 [10/2022 - 11/2023], or See step  1 [11/2023 - ]

      2. Measure the resistance between each terminal of the spiral cable sub-assembly according to the value(s) in the table below.
