2005 Toyota Sienna Clock Spring Parts Q&A

• Q: How to replace the Clock Spring Assembly / Spiral Cable on 2005 Toyota Sienna?

  A: The replacement process of the Clock Spring Assembly / Clock Spring begins with implementing Air Bag Systems service precautions and then disconnecting the battery negative terminal. Begin by placing the steering wheel facing straight ahead before retiring lower No.2 and No.3 steering wheel cover pieces and both the horn button and steering wheel from the wheel using Special Service Tool numbers 09950-50013 (09951-05010, 09952-05010, 09953-05020, 09954-05021). Once you detach the 2 steering column screws the steering column cover can be removed while you disconnect each Air Bag connector and clock spring sub-assembly connector and unfasten three claws to take it out. The clock spring sub-assembly requires inspection for connector scratches or cracks as well as any presence of cracks, dents or chipping. Replace the clock spring sub-assembly if any of these conditions appear. The front wheel alignment must be checked prior to setting the turn signal switch to neutral position while installing the clock spring sub-assembly including the removal of the lock pin before assembling the steering wheel. Install the steering column cover by using the two screws after rejoining both the Air Bag connector and the connector. Following the procedure properly requires you to disable both the ignition and the negative terminal before counterclockwise rotation until resistance sets in followed by clockwise rotation of the cable till the marks line up. The last steps involve installing the steering wheel assembly followed by steering wheel center point inspection before horn button assembly installation and its inspection and finally testing the SRS warning light.
