Clock Spring: Description and Operation

PURPOSE

The clockspring, mounted on the steering wheel column, behind the steering wheel, is used to maintain a continuous electrical circuit between the
wiring harness and the driver airbag module. 

CONSTRUCTION

The clockspring assembly consists of a flat, ribbon like, electrically conductive tape, which winds and unwinds as the steering wheel is rotated.
