Removal and Replacement
The illustration on the adjacent page is intended as a guide
to removal and replacement.
Removal
1 Remove the steering wheel as shown at A.
2 Remove screws B and take off the steering column
cover.
3 Remove the control column switches C.
4 Remove bolts D and the coupling bolt E. Then carefully
withdraw the steering column assembly from the
flexible coupling F.
Replacement
Replacement is the reverse of the removal sequence.
Note: The coupling bolt E must engage with the cut-out in
the shaft.
Dismantling and Assembly
The illustration on the adjacent page is intended as a guide
to dismantling and assembly.
Dismantling
1 Remove set pin J and spacer K and withdraw shaft
from the outer column assembly.
2 Bend back retaining tabs to remove upper bearing L,
then remove lower bearing M.
Note: The top and bottom bearings L and M housed in the
outer column assembly are non serviceable parts. They may
be removed for cleaning and inspection, but if the bearing(s)
have failed a new outer column assembly must be used.
Assembly
Assembly is the reverse of the dismantling sequence.
1 Press in bearing M until flush with the end of the outer
column, and bearing L until it can be secured by the
retaining tabs.
2 Assemble the shaft into the outer column assembly to
achieve minimum end float (maximum permissible 2.0
mm (0.08 in)) by selecting an appropriate groove in
spacer K.
Note: Fit additional spacing washers N above set pin P if
necessary.
