5. Install the horn contacts (pads) (2) on the steering wheel as follows:
a. Starting at the connector end (1), place the connector at the 12 o'clock position and route the contact wiring counterclockwise around the wheel
hub as shown.
b. Push each horn contact into its mounting hole. When routed correctly, the white contacts are on the left side of the wheel and the black
contacts are on the right side.
c. Make sure the wiring is routed that it does not interfere with any wheel mounted components.
6. If equipped with speed control, connect the speed control wiring connector (3).
7. Confirm that:
a. The front wheels are in the STRAIGHT-AHEAD position.
b. The turn signal stalk is in the neutral position.
CAUTION: When installing the steering wheel, the clockspring must be centered in its travel to avoid overextending the clockspring inner
parts, causing the clockspring to become inoperative. If removed and handled properly using the correct procedures, it should be
in the "centered" position. If there is any question as to whether the clockspring is in the "centered" position of travel, perform
the clockspring centering procedure before proceeding. See: Restraint Systems/Air Bag Systems/Clockspring Assembly / Spiral
Cable/Service and Repair .
8. Feed the airbag wiring leads (1) through the upper hole (2) in the steering wheel (3). Align the steering wheel's wide mounting spline with the
steering column shaft missing spline area and push the wheel onto the shaft. Make sure the clockspring lines up with the back of the wheel and
does not bind.
9. Install the steering wheel retaining bolt and tighten it until the steering wheel is fully installed on shaft. Tighten the steering wheel retaining bolt to
50 Nm (37 ft. lbs.).
