Notice: Before the shaft is rotated, remove the inflatable restraint coil assembly from the steering column and allow it to hang freely. Failure to do
so may damage the coil assembly.
*
Visually inspect the steering shaft for sheared injected plastic (1). If the steering shaft shows sheared plastic, replace the steering shaft.
*
Any frame damage that could cause a bent steering shaft must have the steering shaft runout checked. Using a dial indicator at the lower end of the
steering shaft, rotate the steering wheel. The runout must not exceed 1.60 mm (0.06 in).
