2007 Cadillac SRX Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to remove and replace the Steering Angle Sensor on 2007 Cadillac SRX?

  A: Start by disabling sir then take out the Steering Column followed by the turn signal switch housing before removing the tilt spring. Use the pivot pin remover (J 21854-01) to extract two pivot pins from the Steering Column support assembly. Next, remove the boot seal. Users must remove the Steering Shaft seal and sensor retainer when the sensor is absent from installation. The installation process starts by removing the sensor locator when a sensor is present together with the sensor assembly. Installation steps require fitting of the sensor retainer plus Steering Shaft seal only if the sensor is currently missing. Initial installation requires sensor assembly placement at the 9 o'clock position followed by sensor locator installation and boot seal installation. Follow this sequence of assembly for the components: install the Steering Shaft assembly into the Steering Column tilt head assembly then install the tilt head assembly followed by the Steering Shaft assembly into the Steering Column jacket assembly . A new Steering Column support assembly must replace one that has received three staking impacts. You need gm p/n 12346293 (Canadian P/N 992723) to lubricate pivot pins before installing each of them onto the Steering Column support assembly while stake them in 3 points. To finish the installation process place the tilt spring assembly alongside the turn signal switch housing while repositioning the Steering Column inside the vehicle and reactivating the sir system.
