⚠️ 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 [citation:1].

Verification: Always verify that the replacement part matches your original in connector type and pin configuration. Professional installation recommended.

Post-Installation: After installation, verify horn function, steering wheel controls, and ensure the airbag warning light extinguishes correctly. If the light remains on, diagnostic scanning may be required.
