Steering Column Control Module - Disassembly

DISASSEMBLY






WARNING: To service any component of the SCCM, the entire assembly must be removed from the column. This must be done due to the clockspring passing through the assembly and into the self docking connector. Failure to remove the assembly could damage the pins of the clockspring and prevent the airbag system from operating properly. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious or fatal injury.

1. Loosen the three clockspring screws (1) just far enough to release the clockspring from the SCCM. Leave them in the clockspring so it won't unwind.





2. Carefully pull straight up on clockspring to remove.

NOTE: After the clockspring is removed, there is only one more screw on the top side of the SCCM that needs to be removed and is located at approximately the six o'clock position on the SCCM. It holds the lower side of the steering angle sensor, the lower side of the electric tilt lever assembly, or the strengthening strut if not equipped with electric tilt.






3. Remove the steering angle sensor screw located at the six o'clock position on the SCCM and remove the steering angle sensor (1) from the SCCM (2).





4. Remove the strut screw, located at the six o'clock position, and strut (1).





5. Remove the speed control switch (1).





6. Remove the three screws (1) at the bottom of the SCCM shroud for the multi-function switch and Steering Control Module (SCM).





7. Separate the multi-function switch from the SCM.
