FIGURE 11: LOCKING THE CLOCKSPRING IN PLACE
NOTE
The clockspring mechanism permits a certain
number of turns in each direction. At the
moment of reinstalling the steering wheel, if
the clockspring is not at its neutral position, the
number of available turns will be reduced. That
may damage the clockspring if the steering
wheel is turned to its maximum amplitude.
7.2
INSTALLATION
1. Route the white horn wire and the 4-pin
connector through the opening on the
steering wheel.
2. Align the mark on the steering wheel hub
with the mark on the spline shaft and slide
the wheel onto the shaft.
3. Tighten wheel retaining nut to a torque of 35-
45 lbf·ft.
4. Plug the 4-pin connector and connect the
white horn wire to the center pad.
5. Reinstall the center pad and test for proper
horn functioning.
7.3
CLOCKSPRING REPLACEMENT
1. Remove the steering wheel.
2. Remove the 2 clockspring mounting screws
and then remove the clockspring. You will
have to disconnect the clockspring harness
connector located lower along the steering
wheel column. If necessary, remove the
steering column covers (Fig. 8).
3. Route the new clockspring harness through
the opening in the clockspring support (Fig.
12). Plug the connector at the base of the
steering wheel column and fix harness along
the steering wheel column.
FIGURE 12: CLOCKSPRING INSTALLATION
4. Mount the clockspring in place with 2
screws.
5. Break the paper seal and rotate the center
part of the clockspring about 50° clockwise
(Fig. 13). This step is necessary for the
installation of the steering wheel.
FIGURE 13: PROPER CLOCKSPRING POSITION
6. Reinstall the steering wheel.
8. TURNING ANGLE ADJUSTMENT
The maximum turning angle is set through two (2)
steering stop screws installed on the axle center.
Steering stop screws are factory adjusted to
accommodate the chassis design, and therefore,
do not require adjustment on new vehicles.
However, these should be checked and adjusted
if necessary, any time a steering system
component is repaired, disassembled or adjusted.
Refer to section 10
"Front Axle"
under heading
‘’6.4 ‘’Turning Angle Adjustment".
CAUTION
To prevent the steering damper from interfering
