REMOVAL
WARNING: On vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the airbag system before attempting any steering
wheel, steering column, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the

take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment and possible personal injury or
death.
