- 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 round plastic piece that sits behind your 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 holds the group of wires, allowing them to turn with the steering wheel and not get tangled, worn, or frayed. The enclosed wires power functions within the steering wheel, like: the airbag, horn, cruise control, and radio.
The Air Bag Clockspring in your Nissan is made to stand-up to years and years of use. However, if you notice an illuminated airbag light on the dashboard, it may mean that you need to replace the Air Bag Clockspring. Additionally, if your steering wheel buttons aren't functioning properly, it might be time to replace the Air Bag Clockspring.
It’s recommended that you take your vehicle to a Nissan service center to replace the Air Bag Clockspring as installation requires the removal of the airbag and steering wheel. A technician will disconnect the car battery, disable the airbag safety system, and remove the driver's side airbag. Next, the technician will detach the steering wheel and unhook the clips that secure the clockspring. Then, the technician will pull the impaired clockspring and its electrical connectors from the steering column. 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.
