steering limit switchs

I have determined that the steering limit switches on our Crown need to be replaced. Not sure which one is bad but I can figure that out. My question is it a simple plug and play swap out or is some kind of calibration or adjustment required. I have the crown service and parts manual but that thing is not much help.

The steer limit switches just cut out the contactor for the inside wheel when making a sharp turn, allowing it to freewheel. There is no calibration, you just adjust it make when the high spot on the drive unit ring gets there.
