- Connects the wiring of your steering wheel buttons, airbag, and horn to your vehicle’s electrical system
- Allows the wires to turn with the motion of the steering wheel without becoming tangled or frayed
- Replacement requires the removal of the steering wheel — professional installation is recommended
The Air Bag Clockspring is a plastic, round component that is found behind your vehicle's steering wheel. It connects the wires from your airbag and buttons on your steering wheel to the electrical system in your car. These wires must stay secure and in one place when your steering wheel moves and turns. The Air Bag Clockspring protects the wires, allowing them to move with the steering wheel without getting frayed, tangled, or worn out. The enclosed wires support steering wheel functions, including: the cruise control on/off, radio, airbag, and horn.
The Air Bag Clockspring in your INFINITI is made to stand-up to years and years of use. However, if you notice an illuminated airbag light on the dashboard, it might be a signal that it's time to replace the Air Bag Clockspring. Additionally, if your horn or steering wheel buttons aren't working anymore, that's also a sign it's a good time for a new INFINITI Air Bag Clockspring.
Air Bag Clockspring installation requires removal of the steering wheel and airbag, so it's recommended that you take your INFINITI to an authorized service center for Air Bag Clockspring installation. After disabling the airbag safety system, a technician will take out the driver's side airbag. Next, they will detach the steering wheel and remove the plastic clips and bolts holding the clockspring in place. Then, the worn out clockspring is pulled out, along with its electrical connectors. Lastly, they will mount the Air Bag Clockspring to the steering column, check that the alignment markers are correctly placed, and then connect the wiring.
