02 Jetta turn signal

Nov 29, 2007 3 Replies

Hello. I am new to the group. I need some help with my 02 Jetta. Does anyone know how to remove the stearing wheel (air bag equiped) so I can replace the t-signal/high beam switch? I have removed stearing wheels before, but not with an air bag.



Thanks, Jay

It can be tricky if you've never done it before. I personally use a medium length screwdriver that I've bent to shape in order to release the airbag. You have to pull the metal locking tabs inwards.

And make 100% sure the battery is disconnected for at least 20 minutes before starting this task!

Why, what's the problem you tryin' to fix.
