doing repairs or service.
1. Do the battery terminal disconnection procedure (see page 22-68).

4. Loosen the steering wheel bolt (B). 5. Install a commercially available steering wheel
puller (A) on the steering wheel (B). Free the
steering wheel from the steering column shaft by
turning the pressure bolt (C) of the puller.
Note these items when removing the steering
wheel: Do not tap on the steering wheel or the steering column shaft when removing the steering wheel.
 If you thread the puller bolts (D) into the wheel hub more than five threads, the bolts will hit the
cable reel and damage it. To prevent this, install
a pair of jam nuts five threads up on each puller
bolt.
6. Remove the steering wheel puller, then remove the steering wheel bolt and steering wheel from the
steering column.
