Lock Cylinder: Removal

  1. Turn the steering wheel so that the vehicle's wheels are pointing straight ahead.
  2. Turn the ignition switch to "LOCK".
  3. Disconnect the battery ground cable, and wait at least 5 minutes.
  4. Disconnect the yellow 2-way SRS connector located under the steering column.
    CAUTION: The wheels of the vehicle must be straight ahead and the steering column in the "LOCK" position before disconnecting the steering wheel. Failure to do so will cause the coil assembly to become uncentered which will cause damage to the coil assembly.
  5. Remove the engine hood opening lever and steering lower cover.
  6. Remove driver knee bolster (reinforcement).
  7. Loosen the inflator module fixing bolt from behind the steering wheel assembly using a TORX® driver or equivalent until the inflator module can be released from steering assembly.

  10. Move the front wheels to the straight ahead position, then use steering wheel remover J-29752 to remove the steering wheel.
    CAUTION: Never apply force to the steering wheel shaft using a hammer or other impact tools in an attempt to remove the steering wheel. The steering shaft is designed as an energy absorbing unit.

    WARNING: THE INFLATOR MODULE SHOULD ALWAYS BE CARRIED WITH THE TRIM COVER AWAY FROM YOUR BODY AND SHOULD ALWAYS BE LAID ON A FLAT SURFACE WITH THE URETHANE SIDE UP. THIS IS NECESSARY BECAUSE A FREE SPACE IS PROVIDED TO ALLOW THE AIR CUSHION TO EXPAND IN THE UNLIKELY EVENT OF ACCIDENTAL DEPLOYMENT. OTHERWISE, PERSONAL INJURY MAY RESULT.
