Park the vehicle with the wheels pointing straight ahead. Disconnect the cable from the negative terminal of the battery. Remove the steering wheel, then turn the ignition key to the LOCK position to prevent the steering shaft from turning. Caution: If this is not done, the airbag spiral cable could be damaged. Remove the lower finish panel under the column and the heater duct behind it. Remove the steering column covers. Disconnect the electrical connectors for the steering column harness. Disconnect the shift cable. Remove the column hole cover at the firewall. Mark the relationship of the intermediate shaft U-joint to the steering shaft, then remove the pinch bolt. Remove the steering column mounting fasteners, lower the column and pull it to the rear, making sure nothing is still connected. Separate the intermediate shaft from the steering shaft and remove the column. Guide the steering column into position, then align the marks made and connect the intermediate shaft. Install and tighten the column mounting fasteners. Install the pinch bolt, tightening it. The remainder of installation is the reverse of removal.
