Why Your Clock Spring Matters
A faulty clock spring may trigger the airbag warning light or cause horn failure. Prompt replacement is recommended if any of these symptoms occur.

⚠️ IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE & INSTALLATION TIPS

Before Installation: Disconnect the battery negative terminal and wait at least 5 minutes for the airbag system to discharge.

Centering: Ensure front wheels are perfectly straight. The new clock spring comes with a centering clip – do NOT remove this clip until the clock spring is fully installed and the steering wheel is in position. Rotating the clock spring without the clip can damage the internal ribbon cable.

Post-Installation: After installation, verify horn function and ensure the airbag warning light extinguishes correctly.
