For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System :
Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to “Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location View” under
“General Description” in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing ser-
vice on or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Ser-
vice Precautions” under “On-Vehicle Service” in air bag system section before performing service
on or around the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in
unintentional activation of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these two
conditions may result in severe injury.
Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
“LOCK” position and negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system may
be activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).
NOTE:
All steering gear fasteners are important attaching parts in that they could affect the performance of
vital parts and systems, and/or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with one
of the same part number or with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary. Do not use a
replacement part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified dur-
ing reassembly to assure proper retention of these parts.

WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System:
Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Service Precautions” under “On-
Vehicle Service” in air bag system section before performing service on or around the air bag sys-
tem components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in unintentional activation of
the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these two conditions may result in
severe injury.
The procedures in this section must be followed in the order listed to temporarily disable the air
bag system and prevent false diagnostic codes from setting. Failure to follow procedures could
result in possible air bag system activation, personal injury or otherwise unneeded air bag system
repairs.
CAUTION:
When fasteners are removed, always reinstall them at the same location from which they were
removed. If a fastener needs to be replaced, use the correct part number fastener for that application.
If the correct part number fastener is not available, a fastener of equal size and strength (or stronger)
may be used. Fasteners that are not reused, and those requiring thread-locking compound, will be
called out. The correct torque value must be used when installing fasteners that require it. If the above
procedures are not followed, parts or system damage could result.

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.

INSPECTION
WARNING:
When handling an air bag (inflator) module, be sure to
read “Service Precautions” given earlier in this section
and observe each instruction. Failure to follow them
could cause a damage to the air bag (inflator) module or
result in personal injury.
WARNING:
Never disassemble driver air bag (inflator) module or
measure its resistance. Otherwise, personal injury may
result.
CAUTION:
If air bag (inflator) module was dropped from a height of
90 cm (3 ft) or more, it should be replaced.

assembly, perform the following procedure.
a) Turn steering wheel so that vehicle’s front tires are at
straight ahead position.
b) Turn ignition switch to “LOCK” position and remove key.
4) Remove steering column hole cover (1).
5) Disconnect all connectors of the following parts.
Combination switch/contact coil and combination switch
assembly.
Ignition switch.
Immobilizer control system parts (if equipped).
6) Remove joint bolt (steering column side) (3) and loosen joint
bolt (steering gear box side).
7) Remove steering column mounting nuts (2) and bolts (1).WARNING:

tion 0A.
NOTE:
All front suspension fasteners are an important attaching part in that it could affect the performance
of vital parts and systems, and/or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with
one of the same part number or with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary. Do not
use a replacement part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as speci-
fied during reassembly to assure proper retention of this part.
Never attempt to heat, quench or straighten any front suspension part. Replace it with a new part or
damage to the part may result.

Diagnosis
Diagnosis Table
Refer to “Diagnosis Table” in Section 3.
Rear Shock Absorber Check
Inspect for deformation or damage.
Inspect bushings for wear or damage.
Inspect for evidence of oil leakage.
Replace any defective part.
Trailing Arm, Lateral Rod, Axle Housing and
Coil Spring Check
Inspect for cracks, deformation or damage.
Replace any defective part.
Trailing Arm and Lateral Rod Bush Check
Inspect for wear and breakage. If found defective, replace.WARNING:
When handling rear shock absorber in which high-pres-
sure gas is sealed, make sure to observe the following
precautions.
Don’t disassemble it.
Don’t put it into the fire.
Don’t store it where it gets hot.
Before disposing it, be sure to drill a hole in it where
shown by an arrow in the figure and let gas and oil out.
Lay it down sideways for this work.
The gas itself is harmless but it may issue out of the
hole together with chips generated by the drill. There-
fore, be sure to wear goggle.
A : Drill hole with approximately 3 mm (0.12 in.) diameter.
