7.8  STEERING  WHEEL SHAFT AND SHAFT
BEARING
The  steering wheel  (column) shoft is built 
up
of  two  ports 
with the  beoring in the uPPer port.
Usuolly,  it  is  not  necessory to  disconnect the
two  ports 
of the  shoft or to  remove the  beoring
ond steering  lock. lt 
con  be removed  from the
cor os o unit.
Removol 1.  Remove  the steering wheel  - 
see  Chop-
ter 7.7. 2. Remove the  screws on the lower port 
of
the  shoft cowling  ond pull 
the cowling  off.After
removing  two  bolts,  detoch the cluster  switch
on the  shoft from the  upper port 
of  the  shoft
cowling. 3. Remove  two front screws of  the upper 
Port
of  the cowling  ond remove the cowling.
4.  Disconnect  the leods 
from the switches
ond the  switch box.
5.  From  under  the cor,  remove the  bolt of the
coupling  connecting  the steering 
column shoft
to  the steering  box ond detoch the  dust boot
from  the floor. Remove  the 
bolts  of the shoft
beoring  (from 
under  the shoft) 
ond the bolts  of
the steering lock  (from 
the front)  fostening the
shoft to the body,  ond pull 
out the shoft.
Ref itting To ref it the  steering column  shoft 
in the cor,
reverse the  removing procedure. While reinstol-
ling  the steering  wheel (Chopter 
7.7), do  not
forget  to  check  the direction indicotor  switch
for  correct  function.
Use  ploin 
ond spring woshers  under the bolts
of  the  steering lock 
brocket. Reinstoll the  shoft
beoring  using spocing tubes,  rubber bushes, ond
ploin  woshers, ond secure the  bolt of 
the coup-
ling,  connecting the  steering 
column shoft with
the  steering box,  with 
o self-locking  nut (for
tightening  torque, see 
Chopter 1.8).
To Disconnect  Shofts
Remove  the bolt 
of the cross-pin 
ioint con-
nection.
Connecting  of Shofts
Fit  o fostening sleeve on the tube 
with the
shoft,  dip the ring in oil ond  slip 
it on to the shoft end with 
its wedge-shoped  port 
toword
the  beoring,  instoll the  spring 
ond the 
ioint
socket  of 
the  shoft  bottom  port. 
Tighten 
the
connection  with the bolt with  self-locking 
nut
(tightening  torque os per 
Chopter  1.8).
The  sleeve  must be f irst built up if 
the shoft
is refitted for the first time.  Locote 
both holves
of  the  sleeve on  the  tube  ond fosten 
them
lightly  together  by bending the tob of one holf
of ttre sleeve over  the 
other.  The 
sleeve must
on no occount clomp the  tube tightly.
Bottom  Port of Steering 
Column Shoft
The  shoft is  provided 
with  cross-pin 
ioints
ond  connot  be dismontled  (token 
oport). Before
fitting the shoft dust boot,  smeor 
it with 
oil to
focilitote its slipping over  the pcrrts 
of the  joint.
For this  purpose, 
it  is clso  odvisoble to wrop
the  joint 
in o plostic 
foil or to moke o sleeve
with o  pilot 
cone.

Repair of Window  Regulator Defects
lf the windows  are difficult to wind up and
down  (the 
maximum  torque applied on  the
spindle  of the window regulator  with the glass
installed in the doors exceeds  2.5 Nm) (1.77 
tt
lbs), it is recommended  that the following steps
are taken as  regards both  the front 
and rear doors:
1. Disconnect  the regulator driving  plate 
from
the window  glass 
channel.  Push the glass 
upward
and try  the  relieved  regulator by  turning  the
regulator crank.  lf the  regulator does  not work
smoothly  (jamming, 
rattling) or  if 
a torque higher
than  O.7 Nm/(O.495  ft  lbs) in  front and  1.1
Nm/(0.78  ft  lbs) in the  rear is required  for  its
operation,  replace the whole  regulator with a new
one  working satisfactorily.
