Removal Procedure
Warning: Refer to SIR Warning (See: Service Precautions/SIR Warning).
1. Disable the SIR System. Refer to SIR Disabling and Enabling (See: Air Bag(s) Arming and Disarming/Service and Repair).
Caution: The wheels of the vehicle must be straight ahead and the steering column in the LOCK position before disconnecting the steering
column or intermediate shaft from the steering gear. Failure to do so will cause the SIR coil assembly to become uncentered, which may cause
damage to the coil assembly.
2. Verify the following before removing the SIR coil:
*
The wheels on the vehicle are straight ahead.
*
That J 42640 is installed or the ignition switch is in the LOCK position.
3. Remove the steering wheel from the steering shaft. Refer to Steering Wheel Replacement (See: Steering and Suspension/Steering/Steering
Column/Service and Repair/Steering Wheel Replacement).
4. On vehicles with a tilt column, pull the tilt lever straight out from the steering column.
