DRIVER'S AIR BAG MODULE AND CLOCK SPRING
CAUTION: On vehicles with ASC, always carry out steering wheel sensor calibration after the clock spring has been installed (Refer to active
skid control system, On-vehicle Service-Steering Wheel Sensor Calibration). This is necessary because the ASC-ECU should update the steering
neutral point.
