6. Remove wiper washer switch connector, then pinch the tabs at
wiper and washer switch base and slide switch away from steer-
ing column to remove.
7. While pressing tabs, pull lighting and turn signal switch toward
driver door and disconnect from base.
8. Remove the screws, release the clip, and remove the spiral
cable.
CAUTION:
Do not disassemble spiral cable.
Do not apply lubricant to the spiral cable.
9. Remove the spiral cable connectors.
CAUTION:
With the steering linkage disconnected, the spiral cable may snap by turning the steering wheel
beyond the limited number of turns. The spiral cable can be turned counterclockwise about 2.5
turns from the neutral position.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
Align spiral cable correctly when installing steering wheel. Make
sure that the spiral cable is in the neutral position. The neutral
position is detected by turning left 2.6 revolutions from the right
end position and ending with the knob at the top.
If equipped with VDC, refer to BRC-62, "Adjustment of Steering
Angle Sensor Neutral Position" for steering angle sensor adjust-
ment.
After the work is completed, perform self-diagnosis to make sure
no malfunction is detected. Refer to SRS-20, "
SRS Operation
Check" .

WORK SUPPORT
When there is no problem with transfer and 4WD system, following symptom in “AUTO” mode may be claimed
by a customer.
Vibration when accelerating on a low µ road (snow-covered or icy road)
It is possible to deal with these symptoms by changing “CLUTCH FORCE RELEASE LIMIT VALUE”.
However, be careful when changing the values because it may adversely affect driving performance.
NOTE:
A slight shock is felt at a few hertz as if it were being pushed lightly from behind.
Operation Procedure
1. Perform “CONSULT-II SETTING PROCEDURE”. Refer to TF-44, "CONSULT-II SETTING PROCEDURE"
.
2. Touch “WORK SUPPORT”.
3. Select from “CLUTCH/F RLS LIM ADJ”, screen of data monitor mode is displayed.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR SYMPTOMS
Revision: October 20052005 QX56
Heavy Tight-corner Braking Symptom OccursEDS002HT
SYMPTOM:
Heavy tight-corner braking symptom occurs when vehicle is driven in AUTO mode and steering wheel
is turned fully to either side.
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE
NOTE:
Light tight-corner braking symptom may occur depending on driving conditions in AUTO mode. This is not
a malfunction.
Heavy tight-corner braking symptom occurs when vehicle is driven in the following conditions: 4WD shift
switch is "4H" or "4LO", steering wheel is turned fully to either side.
1. CHECK SYSTEM FOR CAN COMMUNICATION LINE
Perform self-diagnosis. Refer to TF-50, "
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE (WITH CONSULT-II)" .
Is "CAN COMM CIRCUIT [U1000]" displayed?
YES >> Perform trouble diagnosis for CAN communication line. Refer to TF-113, "CAN Communication
Line" .
NO >> GO TO 2.
2. CHECK SYSTEM FOR 4WD SHIFT SWITCH
Perform trouble diagnosis for 4WD shift switch system. Refer to TF-62, "
4WD Shift Switch" .
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3.
NG >> Repair or replace damaged parts.

NOTE:
Each OUTPUT terminal transistor is activated at 10 ms intervals. Therefore, after the switch is turned ON,
electrical loads are activated with time delay. This time delay is so short that it cannot be detected by human
senses.
Operation Mode
The combination switch reading function has the operation modes shown below.
1. Normal status
–When BCM is not in sleep status, OUTPUT terminals (1-5) each turn ON-OFF every 10 ms.
2. Sleep status
–When BCM is in sleep status, transistors of OUTPUT 1 stop the output, and BCM enters low current con-
sumption mode. OUTPUT (2, 3, and 4) turn ON-OFF every 10 ms, and only input from light switch system
is accepted.
