General Description
This double tube type steering column has the following three important features in addition to the steering func-
tion:
The column is energy absorbing, designed to compress in a front-end collision.
The ignition switch and lock are mounted conveniently on this column.
With the column mounted lock, the ignition and steering operations can be locked to inhibit theft of the vehi-
cle.
To insure the energy absorbing action, it is important that only the specified screws, bolts and nuts be used as
designated and that they are tightened to the specified torque.
When the column assembly is removed from the vehicle, special care must be taken in handling it. Use of a
steering wheel puller other than the one recommended in this manual or a sharp blow on the end of the steering
shaft, leaning on the assembly, or dropping the assembly could shear the plastic shear pins which maintain col-
umn length and position.
The driver air bag (inflator) module is one of the supplemental restraint (air bag) system components and is
mounted to the center of the steering wheel. During certain frontal crashes, the air bag system supplements the
restraint of the driver’s and passenger’s seat belts by deploying the air bags.
The air bag (inflator) module should be handled with care to prevent accidental deployment. When servicing, be
sure to observe all WARNINGS and CAUTIONS in this section and “Service Precautions” in Section 10B.

Check air bag (inflator) module visually and if any of the following
is found, replace it with a new one.
Air bag being deployed
Trim cover (1) (pad surface) being cracked
Wire harness (3) or connector being damaged
Air bag (inflator) module being damaged or having been
exposed to strong impact (dropped)
INSTALLATION
1) Check that horn wire is connected to horn terminal securely.
2) Connect yellow connector (1) of driver air bag (inflator) mod-
ule (3) pushing connector till it is locked.
3) Install driver air bag (inflator) module to steering wheel, tak-
ing care so that no part of wire harness is caught between
them.
4) Make sure that clearance between module and steering
wheel is uniform all the way.
5) Tighten driver air bag (inflator) module mounting bolts (1) to
specified torque.

Driver air bag (inflator) module mounting bolts
(a) : 9 N·m (0.9 kg-m, 6.5 lb-ft)
6) Install steering wheel side cap (2).
7) Connect negative battery cable.
8) Enable air bag system. Refer to “Enabling Air Bag System”
under “Service Precautions” in Section 10B.
Steering Wheel
2. Inflator case
CAUTION:
For vehicle with air bag system
Removal of the steering wheel allows the contact coil to
turn freely but do not turn the contact coil (on the combi-
nation switch) more than allowable number of turns
(about two and a half turns from the center position
clockwise or counterclockwise respectively), or coil will
break.

5) Tighten steering column mounting nuts and bolts by hand
and then tighten mounting nuts (1) first, and then tighten
mounting bolts (2).
Tightening torque
Steering column mounting bolts and nuts

6) Install steering column hole cover (1).
7) Install steering wheel to steering column referring to “Steer-
ing Wheel” in this section.
Steering Column Assembly
CAUTION:
Once the steering column is removed from the vehicle,
the column is extremely susceptible to damage.
Dropping the column assembly on its end could col-
lapse the steering shaft or loosen the plastic shear
pins which maintain column length.
Leaning on the column assembly could cause it to
bend or deform.
Any of the above damage could impair the column’s col-
lapsible design.
NOTE:
When servicing steering column or any column-mounted
component, remove steering wheel. But when removing
steering column simply to gain access to instrument
panel components, leave steering wheel installed on
steering column.
