Switch, Remote Radio: Removal
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, airbags, airbag curtains, knee blocker, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect the Intelligent Battery Sensor (IBS)/negative battery cable assembly from the negative battery post, 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 negative battery cable.
- Working from the back of the steering wheel, release and remove the cover (1a) from the remote radio switch (1b).
- Remove the screw (1a) that secures the radio remote switch (1b) to the steering wheel spoke armature.
- Disconnect the electrical connector (2a) and remove radio remote switch (1b).
