Why Your Clock Spring Matters
The clock spring (also called spiral cable or airbag rotor) is a critical safety component located behind the steering wheel. It ensures continuous electrical connection as the wheel turns, enabling:
- Proper airbag deployment in a collision
- Reliable horn operation
- Functioning of steering wheel audio, phone, and cruise control buttons (if equipped)
A faulty clock spring may trigger the airbag warning light, cause horn failure, or make multifunction buttons unresponsive. Replacing it with our high-quality unit restores full functionality and safety.
