LEAVE IT ALONE. IF YOU TAMPER WITH IT, THE AIR BAG CAN DEPLOY AT ANYTIME AND POSSIBLY HURT SOMEONE. Any repairs should be done by the dealership. If you disable the airbag and get into an accident the insurance company does NOT have to pay!!!!!!!!!!
You can pull the airbag fuse, disconnect sir yellow wire at steering column that goes to the clockspring, or disconnect the battery neg cable. The last is foolproof but will clear out anything with a memory.
If you are referring to the Turn Signal Flasher Module, it is located inside the Steering Column. Make sure you Disconnect the Battery as Airbag is right there on Steering Wheel! You can take off the Steering Column Covers by removing the 3 Screws from the Lower Steering Column Cover and then separating the Lower and Upper Covers, setting them off to the side. The Flasher Module is on top of the Steering Column behind the Mult Function Switch. To remove the Flasher Module, you have to Disconnect the Electrical Connector and Remove the Flasher Module from its Mounting Bracket.

you have to take the airbag out first.
I thnk you mean a clock spring. It is located underneath the airbag in the steering column. It has to do with the air bag and such.
All clocksprings are located in the steering column under the steering wheel airbag. Have fun!! Ron
# Disable airbag system. # Remove steering column covers and lower instrument panel cover # Lower steering column # Disconnect the shift interlock cable from ignition lock housing # The lock assembly is clamped to the steering column by two shear-head bolts. Drill heads off each bolt and remove the bracket. # Remove the steering lock assembly from the steering column
To remove the steering wheel start by disconnecting the negative battery terminal to prevent accidental airbag deployment. Then remove the screws on the backside of the steering wheel to remove the airbag. Disconnect the airbag wiring connectors. Remove the steering column shaft nut and remove the steering wheel with a puller. Do not yank, hammer, pry the steering wheel off as this could result in steering shaft damage.
Two torque screws on the back of the steerin g wheel release the airbag (TAKE out the Airbag fuses and disconnect the Negative battery cable first!). Steering wheel must be unbolted and pulled. Key switch taken out. The rest is self-expanatory.
No, the airbag system, and the steering system are completely different. The airbag, in the centre of the steering wheel (i assume) can be replaced. Lets say for example, your vehicle has a crash, and the airbag is deployed, you will need to replace it, and then remove any fault codes from the airbag module (or ECU). If the airbag light is illuminated, but the airbag hasn't deployed, this indicates a general fault (which shouldnt be ignored) Personally id have this investigated by a trained technician, as an exploding airbag isn't something i'd like to be standing next to! SRS systems are complex and rely on a control module, its more electric than it is mechanical, replacing a steering column would just simply; replace the steering column...
Hi, the faulty part is called a clock spring and it is located inside the steering column. It is a device that allows the steering wheel to be turned without losing electrical contact with the airbag sensor in the steering wheel. Do not try to replace it yourself, take it to the garage, but do have it replaced as your airbag is likely non-functional. Ray
