STEERING COLUMN - STANDARD
1994 Toyota Celica
1994 STEERING
Toyota - Steering Column - Standard
Celica
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
Steering column is a collapsible 2-piece design. Columns use
shear pins to absorb collision impact. Steering shaft is connected
directly to steering gear with either flexible coupling or "U" joint.
Some models have an air bag integral with the steering wheel pad.
NOTE: For models with tilt wheel steering columns, see
STEERING COLUMN - TILT article in STEERING section.
DISABLING & ACTIVATING AIR BAG SYSTEM
WARNING: Before any repairs are performed on air bag equipped models,
disconnect and shield negative battery cable. Wait at least
90 seconds after disconnecting battery cable before
performing any repairs. Air bag system retains enough voltage
to deploy air bag for a short time after disconnecting power.
Use caution when working around steering column. Air bag
could deploy.
To disable air bag system, ensure ignition switch is in LOCK
position and negative battery terminal is disconnected for at least 90
seconds before attempting any repair. DO NOT apply electrical power to
any component on steering column without disconnecting air bag control
unit. Information labels are attached to air bag components. Follow
all notices on labels. See the AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEM article in the
ACCESSORIES/SAFETY EQUIPMENT section.
ADJUSTMENTS
SPIRAL CABLE
On vehicles equipped with air bag system, spiral cable MUST
be correctly adjusted to ensure proper air bag operation. Ensure front
wheels are in straight-ahead position. Turn spiral cable (located on
combination switch) counterclockwise by hand until it becomes harder
to turn cable. Turn spiral cable clockwise about 3 turns and ensure
Red marks align and are visible through inspection hole. See Fig. 1.

3) Pull steering wheel pad from steering wheel and disconnect
electrical connector. Remove steering wheel pad. Place steering wheel
pad on flat surface with pad cover facing up.
WARNING: Place steering wheel pad assembly on workbench. Pad surface
MUST face up. If assembly is stored face down, accidental air
bag deployment could propel assembly and cause serious bodily
injury.
4) Mark steering wheel and steering shaft for installation
reference. Remove steering wheel nut. Use appropriate puller to remove
steering wheel.
Installation
1) To install, reverse removal procedure. Before installing
steering wheel, ensure spiral cable is properly aligned. See
ADJUSTMENTS. Tighten steering wheel nut and Torx screws to
specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS.
2) After steering wheel and steering wheel pad are installed,
ensure proper operation of air bag system by turning ignition switch
to ACC or ON position. AIR BAG warning light should come on and go out
after approximately 6 seconds.
3) If AIR BAG warning light stays on for more than 6 seconds,
air bag system is malfunctioning and needs repair. If AIR BAG warning
light comes on with ignition on, a short circuit is likely in AIR BAG
warning light circuit.
COMBINATION SWITCH
Removal & Installation
1) Disconnect and shield negative battery cable. Remove
steering wheel. See STEERING WHEEL & AIR BAG. Remove instrument
cluster lower trim panel. Remove upper and lower steering column
covers.
