What this part does
The clock spring sits directly behind the steering wheel and houses a spiraled flat ribbon cable. It maintains a continuous electrical connection between the main wiring harness of the vehicle and the rotating steering wheel. This component ensures power and signal routing to the driver's side airbag, horn, and steering wheel-mounted controls such as audio and cruise control. When a clock spring fails, the airbag warning light typically illuminates, and the horn or steering wheel buttons will become unresponsive.

Before you order
Ensure that both your steering wheel and the front wheels of the vehicle are perfectly centered pointing straight ahead before removing the old unit and installing this one. If the internal hub of the clock spring is rotated while uninstalled, the internal ribbon cable will snap the first time the steering wheel is turned to full lock. Match the OEM part number exactly, as internal wiring pins vary depending on whether the vehicle is equipped with specific steering wheel controls or a heated steering wheel.
