^ Before working on any airbag, steering wheel or steering column components, first always disconnect the battery.
^ After the battery and airbag power supply have been disconnected, make sure that the front wheels face straight ahead when the steering wheel is removed /to ensure that the airbag spiral spring will not be damaged).

Determine the correct coding for the anti-theft radio.
Disconnect the battery Ground (GND) strap.
