Left-Hand Drive: Dodge
WARNING:
To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the SRS. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.
- Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
- From the back of the steering wheel (1), access and remove the screw (3) that secures the left front spoke bezel and Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) switch unit to the steering wheel.
- From the face of the steering wheel, pull the outboard side of the left front spoke bezel up from the steering wheel far enough to disengage the lip on the inboard side of the bezel from under the edge of the driver airbag trim cover.
- Pull the left front spoke bezel (2) away from the steering wheel far enough to access and disconnect the steering wheel wire harness connector from the connector receptacle (1) integral to the inboard end of the EVIC switch pod.
- From the back of the left front spoke bezel, remove the three screws (3) that secure the mounting adapter plate (4) and the EVIC switch pod to the bezel.
- Remove the mounting adapter plate and switch from the bezel.
