Install the special tool to the clockspring. Clockspring locking tool
211-326 Special Tool(s) www.JagDocs.com
4. Install the upshift and downshift paddle switches.
Connect and secure the electrical connector.
Tighten to 3 Nm.
Repeat the above procedure on the opposite hand.
5. CAUTION: Make sure that the arrow on the cassette is
centered and pointing vertically prior to the steering wheel
installation. On removal of the special tool keep the
clockspring cables taught to prevent the cassette moving
from the set position. Do not allow the clockspring to
unwind. Failure to follow this instruction may result in
damage to the component.
Remove the special tool.
6. CAUTION: Check the alignment arrow is still in the
vertical position with the wheels straight ahead to make
sure that the directional indicator cancellation is central.
Install the steering wheel.
Check the clockspring is aligned.
Position the electrical harness.
Connect the electrical connector.
Tighten to 60 Nm.

LEFT HAND MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH
Turn Signal Indicators System Operation
The instrument cluster outputs a reference voltage to the turn signal indicator switch. When the switch is in the central off
position, the voltage flows through 3 resistors which are connected in series and back to the instrument cluster which monitors
the signal and determines the turn signal indicators are off. This information is broadcast on the medium speed CAN bus to the CJB.
When the switch is operated in the LH turn signal indicator position, the reference voltage from the instrument cluster is routed via 1 of the resistors. The returned signal voltage is detected by the instrument cluster which outputs a message on
the medium speed CAN bus to the CJB. The CJB activates the applicable turn signal indicators until it receives an off message from the instrument cluster.
When the switch is operated in the RH turn signal indicator position, the reference voltage from the instrument cluster is routed via 2 of the resistors. The returned signal voltage is detected by the instrument cluster which outputs a message on
the medium speed CAN bus to the CJB. The CJB activates the applicable turn signal indicators until it receives an off message from the instrument cluster.
Lighting Control Switch
The instrument cluster outputs 2 reference voltages to the rotary lighting control switch; one feed being supplied to the light
selection function of the switch and the second feed being supplied to the autolamp exit delay function. The switch position is
determined by instrument cluster by the change in returned signal voltage which is routed through up to 4 resistors in series
depending on the selection made.
When the lighting control switch is in the off position, the reference voltage flows through 1 of the resistors. The returned
signal voltage is detected by the instrument cluster which outputs a message on the medium speed CAN bus to the CJB that no lighting selection is made. The reference voltage to the autolamp exit delay switch is routed through 4 resistors which is
detected by the instrument cluster which outputs a message on the medium speed CAN bus to the CJB that autolamp or exit delay has not been selected.
When the lighting control switch is in the sidelamp position, the reference voltage flows through 2 of the resistors. The
returned signal voltage is detected by the instrument cluster which outputs a message on the medium speed CAN bus to the CJB to activate the sidelamps. The reference voltage to the autolamp exit delay switch is routed through 4 resistors which is detected by the instrument cluster which outputs a message on the medium speed CAN bus to the CJB that autolamp or exit delay has not been selected.
When the lighting control switch is in the headlamp position, the reference voltage flows through 3 of the resistors. The
returned signal voltage is detected by the instrument cluster which outputs a message on the medium speed CAN bus to the CJB to activate the headlamps. The reference voltage to the autolamp exit delay switch is routed through 4 resistors which is detected by the instrument cluster which outputs a message on the medium speed CAN bus to the CJB that autolamp or exit delay has not been selected.
When the lighting control switch is in the autolamp position, the reference voltage flows through 4 of the resistors. The
returned signal voltage is detected by the instrument cluster which outputs a message on the medium speed CAN bus to the CJB to activate the autolamp function. The reference voltage to the autolamp exit delay switch is routed through 4 resistors which is detected by the instrument cluster which outputs a message on the medium speed CAN bus to the CJB that autolamp has been selected.
Autolamp Exit Delay
When the lighting control switch is in any of the autolamp exit delay position, the lighting control switch reference voltage
flows through 4 of the resistors. The returned signal voltage is detected by the instrument cluster which outputs a message on
the medium speed CAN bus to the CJB that autolamps has been selected.
Depending on the selected position, the reference voltage to the autolamp exit delay switch is routed through 3, 2 or 1
resistors which is detected by the instrument cluster. The cluster outputs a message on the medium speed CAN bus to the CJB that autolamp exit delay period has been selected at 30, 60 or 120 seconds respectively.
Trip Function Button
The instrument cluster outputs a reference voltage to the trip function button. When the function button is pressed a ground

STEERING COLUMN ADJUSTMENT SWITCH
The column adjustment switch is located in the steering column lower shroud and held in place with a spring clip. The switch
allows the adjustment of the steering column for both reach and rake angle. The switch has an auto position which allows the
desired position of the column to be set by the driver using the driver's seat memory buttons. The column position is Item Description 1 Auto/intermittent rotary switch 2 Fast wipe 3 Slow wipe 4 Intermittent wipe 5 Off position 6 Wash/wipe 7 Flick wipe www.JagDocs.com
automatically reset once the applicable remote handset has been detected by the vehicle security systems.
STEERING WHEEL HEATER
On certain models the rim of the steering wheel contains a heater element. Operation of the heater is selected using the
Touch Screen Display (TSD).
The heater temperature is controlled by a heated steering wheel control module located within the steering wheel. Power for
the heater element is supplied to the steering wheel via 2 contacts on the clockspring and a slip ring mounted on the steering
wheel.

Inspection and Verification
CAUTION: Diagnosis by substitution from a donor vehicle is NOT acceptable. Substitution of control modules does not
guarantee confirmation of a fault, and may also cause additional faults in the vehicle being tested and/or the donor vehicle.
1. Verify the customer concern.
2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of damage and system integrity.
