Tip

•	When reusing a steering wheel position sensor, you must install a pin into the sensor before removal or the sensor will lose its centered position and must be discarded. The pin diameter must be in the range of 1-2 mm.

•	A new steering wheel position sensor will come with a pin installed in the sensor. The steering wheel position sensor will already come centered, DO NOT remove the pin until the steering wheel position sensor is properly seated.

•	During installation the steering wheel position sensor must be set with approximately 3 mm gap between it and the bearing adapter.
