NOTE:
Never rotate the steering shaft as much as possible, when you connect the inter mediate shaft to the gear box. ECU will detect the failure, if the steering shaft would rotate more than +/- 57 degree from installing steering angle sensor to adjusting the alignment.
- Install New Steering Angle Sensor. NOTE: At that time, the projection of the adapter should be fit to the hole on the steering shaft.
