RELAY - FUEL PUMP
DESCRIPTION
The 5–pin, 12–volt, fuel pump relay is located in the Power Distribution Center (PDC). Refer to the label on the PDC
cover for relay location.
OPERATION
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) energizes the electric fuel pump through the fuel pump relay. The fuel pump
relay is energized by first applying battery voltage to it when the ignition key is turned ON, and then applying a
ground signal to the relay from the PCM.
Whenever the ignition key is turned ON, the electric fuel pump will operate. But, the PCM will shut-down the ground
circuit to the fuel pump relay in approximately 1–3 seconds unless the engine is operating or the starter motor is
engaged.
REMOVAL
The fuel pump relay is located in the Power Distribu-
tion Center (PDC) (2). Refer to label on PDC cover for
relay location.
1. Remove PDC cover.
2. Remove relay from PDC.
3. Check condition of relay terminals and PDC con-
nector terminals for damage or corrosion. Repair if
necessary before installing relay.
4. Check for pin height (pin height should be the
same for all terminals within the PDC connector).
Repair if necessary before installing relay.
INSTALLATION
The fuel pump relay is located in the Power Distribution Center (PDC). Refer to label on PDC cover for relay loca-
tion.
1. Install relay to PDC.
2. Install cover to PDC.

COLUMN
DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
NOTE: The steering column on vehicles with an automatic transmission may not be equipped with an inter-
nal locking shaft that allows the ignition key cylinder to be locked with the key. Alternative methods of lock-
ing the steering wheel for service will have to be used.
The tilt and standard column (1) has been designed to be serviced as an assembly; less wiring, switches, shrouds,
steering wheel (4), etc. Most steering column components can be serviced without removing the steering column
from the vehicle.
To service the steering wheel, switches or airbag, refer to Restraints andfollow all WARNINGS and CAUTIONS.
WARNING: The airbag system is a sensitive, complex electro-mechanical unit. Before attempting to diag-
nose, remove or install the airbag system components you must first disconnect and isolate the battery
negative (ground) cable. Then wait two minutes for the system capacitor todischarge. Failure to do so
could result in accidental deployment of the airbag and possible personalinjury. The fasteners, screws, and
bolts, originally used for the airbag components, have special coatings and are specifically designed for the
airbag system. They must never be replaced with any substitutes. Anytime anew fastener is needed,
replace with the correct fasteners provided in the service package or fasteners listed in the parts books.
CAUTION: Do not hammer on steering column shaft. This may cause damage to the shaft or bearing.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to remove the pivot bolts to disassemble the tilting mechanism. Do not remove
shaft lock plate or plate retainer. This will damage the column.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to remove or modify the park lock slider or link.
NOTE: When servicing the steering wheel after removing the old bolt, a new bolt must be used when install-
ing.
NOTE: When servicing the coupler a new bolt must be used when installing.

DESCRIPTION - SRT10
The SRT-10 column has noSTARTposition on the key cylinder. The push starter button switch is mounted on the
Instrument panel center stack. All SRT-10 columns are Tilt columns, Standard cab trucks come with manual trans-
missions, Quad cab trucks come equipped with automatic transmissions.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
STEERING COLUMN
If the vehicle is involved in a front end collision/the air bag has deployedthe column must be inspected. This
inspection will determine if the Column has collapsed. Inspect the columnmounting capsules visually and manually
push and pull them to check for separation or fractures. If capsules are fractured or have moved the column MUST
be replaced.
REMOVAL
WARNING: Before servicing the steering column the airbag system must be disarmed. Refer to electrical
restraint system for service procedures. Failure to do so may result in accidental deployment of the airbag
and possible personal injury.
CAUTION: All fasteners must be torqued to specification to ensure proper operation of the steering column.
1. Position the front wheelsstraight ahead.
2. Disconnect the negative (ground) cable from the battery.
3. Remove the airbag, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/RE-
STRAINTS/DRIVER AIRBAG - REMOVAL).
