This angle sensor clock spring is a vital safety component within the steering column, responsible for maintaining electrical connections to the driver's airbag and steering wheel controls. It allows for continuous communication as the steering wheel turns, unlike a worn or broken spring that can cause intermittent or complete loss of functionality. Symptoms of a failing clock spring include the airbag warning light illuminating, horn malfunction, or loss of steering wheel button functionality.

Disconnect main battery before working on electrical components. Use dielectric grease on all connector pins. Check ground connections — most electrical faults trace to poor grounds. Test with multimeter before installing new parts.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
The most common initial symptom is the illumination of the airbag warning light on the dashboard. This may be accompanied by intermittent or complete failure of the horn or steering wheel audio/cruise control buttons. If left unaddressed, the airbag system may not deploy correctly in an accident, posing a significant safety risk.
Before removing the old clock spring, ensure the steering wheel is centered and the wheels are pointing straight ahead; then, carefully align the new unit to this centered position. Never turn the steering wheel more than a few rotations in either direction after installation without the vehicle's electrical system engaged, as this can damage the ribbon cable.
When replacing the clock spring, it is advisable to inspect the steering wheel mounting bolts and the electrical connectors for the airbag and steering wheel controls.
