Dashboard/Steering Hanger Beam Removal/Installation

1. Install the dashboard in the reverse order of removal, and note these items:
   - Make sure the dashboard fits onto the guide pins correctly.
   - Before tightening the bolts, make sure the wire harnesses are not pinched.
   - Make sure the connectors are plugged in properly.
   - Before reinstalling the dashboard, be sure the collar bolt (A) on passenger's side can be screwed/unscrewed lightly by hand, and then screw all of them into the fixed space adjuster (B) until they contact the stoppers (C) by hand. Do not tighten them fully with any tools.
   - Before reinstalling the dashboard, try to screw the special bolt (D) into the loosened collar bolt. If the collar bolt is not unscrewed by screwing the special bolt, replace this special bolt with a new one.
   - After setting the dashboard on the body, reinstall all of the mounting bolts to the dashboard, tighten the driver's side bracket to the specified torque, then torque the special bolt on the passenger's side. First screw the special bolt into the collar bolt, they will be fixed because of the thread lock on the bolt. Continue tightening the bolt with the collar bolt, they are loosened from the fixed space adjuster until the collar bolt contacts the inside face of the body. Then tighten the bolts again to the specified torque.
   - Apply medium strength liquid thread lock to the bolts securing the center joint bracket and the dashboard before reinstallation.
   - After tightening the dashboard mounting bolts, tighten the center joint bracket mounting bolts, and then tighten the center frame mounting bolts.
   - Do the battery terminal reconnection procedure.
   - Check for any DTCs that may have been set during repairs, and clear them.
   - If necessary. Adjust the shift cable.
