Steering Lock Replacement
SRS components are located in this area. Review theSRS component locations. precautions, and procedures
in the SRS section (24) before performing repairs or ser-vtce.
Remove:
LMake sure you have the anti-theft code for theradio, then wire down the frequencies for theradio's preset buttons ('99 - 00 models).
Disconnect the battery negative cable.
Remove the driver's dashboard lower cover andknee bolster (see section 20).
Disconnect the 5P connector from the under-dash
fuse/relay box and the 7P connector from the mainwire harness (see previous page).
Remove the steering column covers, then removethe mounting bolts and nuts from the steering col-umn (see section l7).
Lower the steering column assembly,
Center-punch each of the two shear bolts, then drilltheir heads off with a 5 mm (3/16 in) dritt bit.
CAUTION: Do not damago the steering lock body.
Remove the shear bolts and the steering lock assem,oty.

Installation:
l. Install the new steering lock assembly without thekey insened.
Loosely tighten the new shear bolts-
Insert the ignition key, and check for proper opera-tion of the steering wheel lock and that the ignitionkey turns freely.
Tighten the shear bolts untilthe hex heads twist off.

-Performance Test
NOTE: Before staning the following checks. disconnect
the wire from terminal M. and make a connection as
described below using as heavy a wire as possible (prefer-
ably equivalent to the wire used for the car).
Pull-in CoilTest:
Connect the battery as shown, lf the staner pinion pops
out. it is working proPerly.
CAUTION: Do not leavo tho batterv connost€d for more
than 10 seconds.
Hold-in Coil Test:
Disconnect the battery from the M terminal' lf the pinion
does not retract, the hold-in coil is working properly.
CAUTION: Do not loavc lhe battsry connected for mot6
than 10 ssconds.
Retracting Tosi:
Disconnect the battery also from the body. lf the pinion
retracts immediately, it is working properly.
GAUTION: Do not loave the baftery conn€ctod tor more
than 10 seconds.
Startor No-load Tost:
Clamp the starter firmly in a vise.
Connect the starter to the battery as described in
the diagram below, and confirm that the motor
starts and keeps rotating.

Jlgnition Control Module (lCMl Input Test
NOTE:
. See section 1'l when the malfunction indicator lamp
(MlL) turned on.
. Perform an input test for the ignition control module
(lCM) after finishing the fundamental tests for the
ignition system and the fuel and emissions systems
1. Remove the distributor ignition (Dl) cap, the distrib-
utor ignition (Dl) rotor and the leak cover (TEC).
2. Disconnect the wires from the lCM.
HITACHI:
BLK/YEL
TEC:
Turn the ignition switch ON (ll). Check for voltage
between the BLK/YEL wire and body ground.
There should be battery voltage.
. lf there is no battery voltage, check the BLK/YEL
wire between the under-dash fuse/relay box and
rhe lcM.
. lf there is battery voltage, go to step 4.
Turn the ignition switch ON (ll). Check for voltage
between the wire*r and body ground
There should be battery voltage.
. lfthere is no battery voltage, check:
- the ignition coil.
- the wire*1 between the ignition coil and the
tcM.
. lf there is battery voltage, go to step 5
*1: BLU' wire (HITACHI)
WHT/BLU wire (TEC)
Disconnect the EcM/PCM connector A (32P). Check
for continuity on the YEUGRN wire between the
ECM/PCM and the lCM.
There should be continuity.
Check for continuity on the YEUGRN wire to body
ground.
There should be no continuity.
Check for continuity on the BLUl wire between the
test tachometer connector and the ICM
There should be continuitY.
Check for continuity on the BLUl wire to body ground.
There should be no continuity.
lf all the tests are normal, replace the ICM
