1. WARNING: Incorrect centralization may result in premature component failure. If in doubt when centralizing the clockspring, repeat
the centralizing procedure. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious personal injury.
CAUTION: Make sure the road wheels are in the straight-ahead position. Failure to follow this instruction may result in component
damage and/or system failure.
if the vehicle's clockspring has rotated out of center, follow these steps to center the clockspring.
1. Hold the clockspring outer housing stationary.
2. CAUTION: Overturning will destroy the clockspring. The internal ribbon wire acts as the stop and can be broken from its internal
connection.
While turning the rotor counterclockwise, carefully feel for the ribbon wire to run out of length and for a slight resistance. Stop turning at this
point.
3. Turn the clockspring clockwise (approximately 2.25 turns) until the clockspring rotor wiring and connector are in the 12 o'clock position.
Clockspring is now centered.

Do not allow the rotor to turn from this position.
All vehicles
2. NOTE: Slight rotation of the absolute steering angle sensor ring is allowed to align the 2 arrows.
