9. Turn the SRS coil counter clockwise to full, return
about 3 turns and align the neutral mark. (with SRS
air bag)
CAUTION: When turning the SRS coil counte
r
clockwise to full, stop turning if resistance is felt.
Forced further turning may damage to the cable in
the SRS coil.

10. When installing the steering column cover, be sure to
route each wire harness as illustrated so that the
harnesses do not catch any moving parts.

11. Install steering wheel and align the setting marks
made when removing.
Refer to the adjustment method in case a mark is
not attached in this section.
NOTE: Confirm SRS and Horn harness connector is
fixed by the steering wheel.
RTW33BSH000601
CAUTION: Never apply force to the steering wheel in
direction of the shaft by using a hammer or othe
r
impact tools in an attempt to remove the steering
wheel. The steering shaft is designed as an energy
absorbing unit.
12. Tighten the steering wheel fixing nut to the specified
torque.
Torque: 31 - 39 N
m (3.2 – 4.0 kg
m/23 - 29 lb ft)
13. Support the module and carefully connect the
module connector and horn lead, then install inflato
r
module.
NOTE: Pass the lead wire through the tabs on the
plastic cover (wire protector) of inflator to prevent lead
wire from being pinched.
14. Tighten bolts to specified torque.
Torque: 2 - 4 N
m (0.2 – 0.4 kg
m/17 - 35 lb in)
15. Install driver knee bolster (reinforcement).
16. Install instrument panel lower cover.
17. Install the engine hood opening lever.
18. Connect the yellow 2-way SRS connector and horn
lead located under the steering column.
19. Connect the battery "-" terminal cable. (with SRS ai
r
bag)

4 Model
RTW340LF000801
The links attach to the vehicle with bolts and bushings at their inner pivot points and to the steering knuckle, which
is part of the front wheel spindle, at their outer points.
The knuckle is mounted to the upper and lower links each of which has a ball joint to permit pivoting of the knuckle
for steering operations. The hub is supported in position on the knuckle spindle by means of the two bearings and
the rotor is mounted to the hub.
The front suspension is an independent type utilizing torsion bar springs (4
4, 4
2 (High ride suspension)) and coil
springs (4
2 (Except High ride suspension)). The torsion bar spring has splines on each end. Height control is
provided on the third crossmember. Both the upper and lower links are pressed steel and the torsion bar is
supported at the ends by lower link in front and by height control arm in rear.

INHIBITOR SWITCH
The inhibitor switch is attached to the right side of the
transmission.
Inspect
1. Block the wheels.
2. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
3. Disconnect the harness connectors.
4. Use a ohmmeter to check the inhibitor switch
continuity between the following terminals as shown
in figure.
5. Place the select lever in the “N” range.
249R300001
6. Move the select lever to either side.
Check the inhibitor switch continuity between the
terminals shown in Step (4).
The continuity readings should remain fairly steady
as the select lever is moved.
If there is no continuity or the continuity is
intermittent, the inhibitor switch must be adjusted.
Adjust
1. Disconnect the shift calbe from the lever.
2. Loosen the inhibitor switch bolts.
3. Use the inhibitor switch set plate to align the neutral
holes (manual shaft and inhibitor switch).
Turn the inhibitor switch to adjust it.
Inibitor switch set plate: 5-8840-2763-0
Note:
Inhibitor switch adjustment is very important.
If the inibitor switch is not correctly adjusted, the
automatic transmission will not function normally.
4. Tighten the 2 inhibitor switch bolts to the specified
touque.
Torque: 5.5 N·m (48 lb·in)
47INH-SW01
5. Connect the shift cable to the lever.
6. Connect the harness connector.
Remove or Disconnect
1. Remove the cable bracket (1) from the transmission.
2. Disconnect the shift cable (2) from the lever (3).
3. Disconnect the harness connectors.
4. Remove the inhibitor switch bolts.
5. Remove the inhibitor switch (4) from the
transmission.
