If reusing the existing inflatable restraint steering wheel module coil it MUST be centered. You should align the inflatable restraint steering wheel module coil with the horn tower on the turn signal switch cancel cam, slide the inflatable restraint steering wheel module coil onto the steering shaft, seat the new inflatable restraint steering wheel module coil retaining ring into the appropriate groove on the steering shaft, remove and discard the centering tab from the new inflatable restraint steering wheel module coil, connect any electrical connectors as needed, install the steering column shroud and the steering wheel and remove anti-rotation pin J 42640.

You should verify the following before removing the inflatable restraint steering wheel module coil, remove the steering wheel and the steering column shroud, disconnect any electrical connectors as needed, remove the inflatable restraint steering wheel module coil retaining ring and discard it, and remove the inflatable restraint steering wheel module coil from the steering shaft. If replacing, you should discard the old inflatable restraint steering wheel module coil.

You should verify the following conditions before centering the SIR coil: the wheels on the vehicle are straight ahead, the block tooth of the steering shaft assembly is in the 12 o'clock position and the ignition switch is in the LOCK position. You should hold the SIR coil face-up, rotate the coil hub clockwise until the coiled ribbon stops, and rotate the coil hub slowly, counterclockwise until the centering window appears yellow and both arrows line up. While holding the coil hub in the CENTER position, you should align the SIR coil with the horn tower and slide it onto the steering shaft assembly. If a double wire harness strap is installed onto the wire harness assembly and column, you must route the wires up against the steering column. One wire harness strap will surround one lead from the coil to the steering column. The other wire harness strap will surround all other leads to the steering column.
