lnterlock System
Key Interlock Solenoid Test
SRS comoonents are located in this area. Review the SRS
component locations, precautions. and procedures in the
SRS section (24) before pertorming repairs or service.
1. Remove the instrument panel lower cover (see sec-
tion 20).
2. Disconnect the ignition switch 6P connector at the
connector holder.
6P CONNECTOR
14-146
3. Check for continuitv between the terminals in each
key position according to the table.
IGNITION SWITCH 6P CONNECTOR
Check that the key cannot be removed with power
connected to the No. 5 terminal and ground connected
to the No. 3 terminal.
lf the key cannot be removed. the key interiock
solenoid is OK.
lf the key can be removed, replace the steering
lock assembly (the key interlock solenoid is not
available separately).

Propeller Shaft
Inspection
Univarsal Joint and Boots
1. Shift the transmission to Neutral.
2. Raise the vehicle off the ground, and support it with
safety stands in the proper locations (see section 1).
3. Check the cente. support bearing for excessive play
or rattle. It the center support has excessive play or
raftle, replace the propeller shaft assembly.
No. 1 PROPET_LER SHAFT
Check the universal joint boots for damage and dete-
rioration. lt the boots are damaged or deteriorated,
replace the propeller shaft assembly.
Check the universal joints for excessive play or rattle.
lf the universal joints have excessive play or rattle,
replace the propeller shaft assembly.
Propellor Shaft Runout
6. Install a dial indicator with its needle on the center of
No, 1 or No.2 propeller shaft.
7. Turn the other propeller shaft slowly and check the
runout. Repeat this procedure for the other propeller
shaft.
No. 1 Propeller Shaft Runout:
Service Limit: t.5 mm (0.06 in)
No. 2 Propeller Shaft Runout:
Service Limit: 1.5 mm {0.06 inl
lf the runout on either oroDeller shaft exceeds the
service limit, replac€ the propeller shaft assembly.

Front Suspension
Suspension Arms Replacement
Note these items during replacement:
. Replace the self-locking nuts after removal.
. The vehicle should be on the ground before any bolts or nuts connected to rubber mounts or bushings are tightened.. Before tightening the upper and lower mounting nuts on the stabilizer link, adjusr the location of the link with the sus-pension under vehicle load.
. After insta lling the suspension arm, check the front wheel alignment, and adjust if necessary (see page 18-4|.
