Electrical Components

It is safe to assume that everyone has been shocked at one time or another when coming into contact with a metal object. The reason for this is the build-up of static electricity in the human body. This charging can lead to malfunctions by touching electrical components in the steering gear and the steering column.

-- Touch a grounded object, for example, a water pipe or a vehicle hoist, before working on electrical components. Do not touch the connector terminals.
