NOTE:
•   If an intact airbag assembly has been removed from a scrapped car or has been found defective or damaged during transit, storage or service, it should be deployed (see section 23).
•   Before removing the gearbox, remove the ignition key to keep the steering shaft from turning.
•   After installing the gearbox, check the wheel alignment and adjust if necessary.
•   The tilt steering column is shown; the conventional steering column is similar except for the tilt mechanism.
CAUTION:
•   All SRS electrical wiring harnesses are covered with yellow outer insulation.
•   When disconnecting the SRS wire harness, install the short connector on the airbag, then disconnect the wire harness (see page 23-297).
•   Replace the entire affected SRS harness assembly if there is an open circuit or damage to the wiring.
