The tilt and standard column (2) has been designed to be serviced as an assembly; less wiring, switches, shrouds, steering wheel, etc. Most steering column components can be serviced without removing the steering column from the vehicle. The adjustable pedal switch is now mounted on the left side of the steering column below the multi-function switch and the ignition switch has been moved to the instrument panel.
To service the steering wheel, switches or airbag, and follow all WARNINGS and CAUTIONS. Refer to Warning .
| WARNING | The airbag system is a sensitive, complex electro-mechanical unit. Before attempting to diagnose, remove or install the airbag system components you must first disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable. Then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge. Failure to do so could result in accidental deployment of the airbag and possible personal injury. The fasteners, screws, and bolts, originally used for the airbag components, have special coatings and are specifically designed for the airbag system. They must never be replaced with any substitutes. Anytime a new fastener is needed, replace with the correct fasteners provided in the service package or fasteners listed in the parts books. |
| CAUTION | Do not hammer on steering column shaft. This may cause damage to the shaft or bearing. |
| CAUTION | Do not attempt to remove the pivot bolts to disassemble the tilting mechanism. Do not remove shaft lock plate or plate retainer. This will damage the column. |
| CAUTION | Do not attempt to remove or modify the park lock slider or link. |
Note. When servicing the steering wheel after removing the old bolt, a new bolt must be used when installing.
Note. When servicing the coupler a new bolt must be used when installing.
