Lower Shroud, Upper Shroud
This text also includes the following components:
Stearing column Lock Cylinder Set
Upper Shroud
Shift Lever Seal (c/s only)
^ Tools Required:
- J 41352 Modular Column Holding Fixture
- Or Equivalent
REMOVE OR DISCONNECT
1. Negative (-) battery cable.
2. Disable the Supplemental Inflatable Restraint (SIR) system.
3. Inter steering shaft assembly (65) or (66) (depending on model) from shaft assembly (37).
^ Remove pinch bolt (64).
NOTICE: Once steering column is removed from vehicle, the column is extremely susceptible to damage. Dropping steering column assembly on its end could collapse steering shaft or loosen plastic injections which maintain column rigidity. Leaning on steering column assembly could cause jacket to bend or deform. Any of the above damage could impair steering column's collapsible design. If it is necessary to remove steering wheel, use only the specified steering wheel puller and holding fixture. Never place column directly into a vise. Under no conditions should the end of shaft be hammered on as hammering could loosen plastic injections which maintain steering column rigidity.
4. Lower or remove steering column from vehicle.
^ Secure steering column to modular colt holding fixture J 41352.
^ Place holding fixture into vise.
^ Inspect steering shaft assembly for accident damage.
5. Tilt lever.
6. Two pan head tapping screws (13) from lower shroud (28).
7. Lower shroud (28).
^ Tilt shroud (28) down and slide back to disengage locking tabs.
8. Two Torx(R) head screws (14) from upper shroud (10).
NOTICE: On designated models, Trim ring (25) must be installed in order to route wires properly. Failure to install Trim ring may result in wire damage.
9. Lift upper shroud (10) to gain access to lock cylinder hole.
a. Hold key in "START" position.
b. Using 1/16-inch allen wrench push on lock cylinder retaining pin.
c. Release key to " RUN" position and pull steering column lock cylinder set (17) from lock module assembly (15).
d. Remove upper shroud (10).
10. Shift lever.
11. Shift lever seal (16).
12. Shroud protector (27) from lower shroud (28).
INSTALL OR CONNECT
NOTICE: Always use the correct fastener in the proper location. When you replace a fastener, use ONLY the exact part number for that application. The manufacturer will call out those fasteners that require a replacement after removal. The manufacturer will also call out the fasteners that require thread lockers or thread sealant. UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, do not use supplemental coatings (paints, greases, or other corrosion inhibitors) on threaded fasteners or fastener joint interfaces. Generally, such coatings adversely affect the fastener torque and the joint clamping force, and may damage the fastener. When you install fasteners, use the correct tightening sequence and specifications. Following these instructions can help you avoid damage to parts and systems. Failure to do so may result in component damage or malfunction of steering column.
