Clockspring Assembly / Spiral Cable: Testing and Inspection
CLOCK SPRING INSPECTION
1. Remove the clock spring. (See CLOCK SPRING REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
2. Inspect for continuity between the clock spring terminals using an ohmmeter. If not as specified, replace the clock spring.
NOTE: When the vehicle-side connector of clock spring is disconnected, the terminals 1A and 1B are shorted to prevent unexpected deployment
of the air bag module. When it is connected, the terminals are open.
