• Q: How to service and repair the Steering Angle Sensor on 2007 Toyota Tacoma?

  A: The Service and repair process of the Steering Angle Sensor begins with observing the Restraint Systems Service Precautions. The negative battery terminal cable needs disconnection followed by waiting for minimum 90 seconds to stop the Air Bag from triggering. Start by setting the front wheels in a straight position before taking out Steering Wheel Cover Lower No. 2 as well as Steering Wheel Cover Lower No. 3 along with Steering Pad Assembly then Steering Wheel Assembly and finally Steering Column Cover Lower and Steering Column Cover Upper. The Spiral Cable and Steering Sensor can be taken off by breaking free the 6 claw fittings. Begin by mounting the Steering Sensor onto the Spiral Cable until all claws properly secure in place and avoid any damage to the parts. You must reinstall the Spiral Cable followed by centering it before you put back the Steering Column Cover Upper together with the Steering Column Cover Lower and other parts including the Steering Wheel Assembly, Steering Pad Assembly, Steering Wheel Cover Lower No. 3, and Steering Wheel Cover Lower No. 2. The cable must be connected to the negative battery terminal using a torque of 3.9 N.m (40 kgf.cm, 35 in.lbf) while inspecting the Steering Pad Assembly before checking the SRS warning light.
