INSTALLATIONNJRS00171. Set the front wheels in the straight-ahead position.
2. Make sure that the spiral cable is in the neutral position.
The neutral position is detected by turning left about 3.5 revo-
lutions from the right end position. Align the two marks (
)or
make sure that the white indicator is visible in the upper part
of the indicator window, with the cable pointed downwards.
CAUTION:
+The spiral cable may snap due to steering operation if the
cable is installed in an improper position.
+Also, with the steering linkage disconnected, the cable
may snap by turning the steering wheel beyond the limited
number of turns. The spiral cable can be turned up to
about 3.5 turns from the neutral position to both the right
and left.
3. Connect spiral cable connector and tighten with screws. Install
steering column cover.
4. Install steering wheel, aligning with spiral cable pin guides, and
pull spiral cable through.
5. Connect horn/audio connector and engage spiral cable with
pawls in steering wheel. Move driver air bag module connec-
tor away from steering wheel lower lid opening.
6. Tighten nut.

7. Position driver air bag module and tighten with new special
bolts.
8. Connect driver air bag module connector.
9. Install steering switches and lids.
10. Conduct self-diagnosis to ensure entire SRS operates prop-
erly. (Use CONSULT-II or warning lamp check.)
Before performing self-diagnosis, connect both battery cables.
11. Turn steering wheel to the left end and then to the right end
fully to make sure that spiral cable is set in the neutral posi-
tion.
If ªAIR BAGº warning lamp blinks or stays ON (at the user
mode), it shows the spiral cable may be snapped due to its
improper position. Perform self-diagnosis again (use CON-
SULT-II or warning lamp). If a malfunction is detected, replace
the spiral cable with a new one.
12. Perform self-diagnosis again to check that no malfunction is
detected.

Collision Diagnosis=NJRS0033FOR FRONTAL COLLISIONNJRS0033S07To repair the SRS, perform the following steps.
When SRS (except the side air bag) is activated in a collision:
1) Replace the diagnosis sensor unit.
2) Remove the air bag modules (except the side air bag module) and front seat belt pre-tensioner assem-
blies.
3) Check the SRS components using the table shown below:
+Replace any SRS components showing visible signs of damage (dents, cracks and deformation).
4) Install new air bag modules (except the side air bag module) and front seat belt pre-tensioner assemblies.
5) Conduct self-diagnosis using CONSULT-II or ªAIR BAGº warning lamp. Refer to ªSRS Operation Checkº
for details (RS-49). Ensure entire SRS operation properly.
When SRS is not activated in a collision:
1) Check the SRS components using the table shown below:
+Replace any SRS components showing visible signs of damage (dents, cracks and deformation).
2) Conduct self-diagnosis using CONSULT-II or ªAIR BAGº warning lamp. Refer to ªSRS Operation Checkº
for details (RS-49). Ensure entire SRS operation properly.

Removal and InstallationNJBT0004+When removing or installing hood, place a cloth or other padding on hood. This prevents vehicle body from
being scratched.
+Bumper fascia is made of plastic. Do not use excessive force and be sure to keep oil away from it.
+Hood adjustment: Adjust at hinge portion.
+Hood lock adjustment: After adjusting, check hood lock control operation. Apply a coat of grease to hood
locks engaging mechanism.
+Hood opener: Do not attempt to bend cable forcibly. Doing so increases effort required to unlock hood.
