REMOVING
Note. Applies to vehicles equipped with dynamic steering: Before the steering wheel can be removed from the steering column, the steering wheel must be in the exact horizontal using the VAS 6458. Mount the new steering wheel so that it is horizontal using the VAS 6458. After doing this step, the steering angle sensor -G85- for setting the steering wheel position must be checked. While doing this, select the appropriate measured values block in the steering column electronic systems control module -J527- in on board diagnostics. If the displayed value is > 0.5°, then the steering angle sensor -G85- must be calibrated again and the dynamic steering must be adapted. Select the program in Guided Fault Finding. Refer to DYNAMIC STEERING BASIC SETTING .
Set the wheels to the straight ahead position.
Position steering wheel as far back as possible. Use entire steering column adjustment range to do this.
Remove the airbag unit. Refer to Removal and Installation .
Note. Removal and installation of steering wheel must take place in center position (wheels in straight-ahead position).
