Thread: Driver Airbag removal, broken wires

you broke the clock spring. you take the air bag off, then the wheel and then a ring clip and its the round thing under the snap ring, the wire runs down the column to under the dash and gets plugged in under there with the ignition harness. its bolted with a 8 mm bolt iirc. if you have radio buttons on your wheel that wires plug is by the obd2 port.

google your year and the part. pics come up. used will be cheaper. and radio controls makes it even cheaper.

i just kinda dove in, never really found a good how to.

all the plastic under the wheel on the column needs to come off the metal shield too under the plastic, the wires are zip tied to the column. the cover under the dash by your feel come off.

you figure out the air back removal yet? the wheel you need a small 2 jaw puller to pop it off. the air bag has 4 small holes in the back, you put a small screw driver, well the largest that will fit the holes, then turn the screwdriver to unlock the clips. do one side at a time. then lift it off, then un plug the air bag.

un hook the battery before doing this, dont want to eat a air bag.

with the clock spring broken, its as good as un plugged now.

this link shows you how to get the stuff under the column off. its a ignition switch how to, but gets you where you need to be. http://www.sparkys-answers.com/2009/...-changing.html
