How do you fix a loose steering wheel on a 1996 ford bronco with airbag?

Your loose steering wheel is probably the result of a bad steering wheel bearing. Your most important priority is to not set off the airbag. To do this correctly you must disconnect the battery and let it sit for 5 minutes while the backup system discharges. Then remove the airbag via the 4 bolts on the back of the steering wheel. after disconecting the airbag and cruise wires you will need to pull the steering wheel. Ford makes a puller but you can probably jury rig a standard puller to do the job. once the wheel is off you'llk need to disconnect all wires from the clock spring and carefully pull it. there are three fragile tabs on the back of the clock spring so be careful. Now you're looking at the steering shaft. Remove the spacer first - it comes right off with no tabs. Next the split ring and spring (pain in the ass as always). and lastly the bearing. Hope this helps - correct me if I'm wrong.

How do you remove 1997 Seville steering wheel?
AIRBAG WARNING: Before you remove any steering wheel parts on an airbag equipped car it is important that you disconnect the negative battery cable to disable the airbag system. A loose airbag deploying directly in your face can cause serious injury, and could possibly kill you DEAD.Having said that, I'm not sure exactly the procedure on a Seville, but I'll give you a basic run down of how to take off most steering wheels.1)Disconnect negative battery cable2)Determine how airbag module is attached to steering wheel. The airbag module is in the front center of the steering wheel and is the part of the steering wheel you see. It likely has a vehicle emblem right on it. There may be plastic covers on the side or back of steering wheel that hide airbag retainer nuts. Some airbag modules are simply held in by clips and can be pulled out. Once you determine how the airbag is fastened remove it from the steering wheel. There will be an electrical connector to the airbag (usually yellow). Carefully disconnect electrical connector and set airbag aside.2)Disconnect horn wire, and any other electrical wires used inside the steering wheel. There should be connectors for all wires.3)NOTE:ENSURE STEERING WHEEL IS POINTED STRAIGHT AHEAD PRIOR TO REMOVAL. At this stage you should have access to the steering wheel nut. Remove the steering wheel nut.Some steering wheels will simply come off at this stage. However most wheels must be pressed off. Use a steering wheel puller to pull wheel. A puller set can be rented at most auto parts stores if you don't have one.4)CLOCKSPRING WARNING:Behind the steering wheel there is a component known as a clockspring. It houses the wires for the airbag and other steering wheel electronics. It allows the steering wheel to spin and maintain electrical connections. It is important that the clockspring or wheels are not turned while the steering wheel is out. If the clockspring is turned too many times over it will break causing steering wheel electronics not to work(and an expensive repair). It must remain centered at all times.
