1. Position the driver airbag close enough to the steering wheel to reconnect the two clockspring driver airbag pigtail wire (1) electrical connections
(5) to the inflator connector receptacles (4) on the back of the airbag housing.
2. Reconnect the wire connectors to the airbag inflator connector receptacles by pressing straight in on the connector insulator. Be certain to engage
each keyed and color-coded connector to the matching connector receptacle. You can be certain that each connector is fully engaged in its
receptacle by listening carefully for a distinct, audible click as the connector latches snap into place.
3. Be certain to fully engage the plastic push-in retainer (2) of the clockspring pigtail wires into the locator hole (3) at the 12 o'clock position on the
back of the airbag housing.

wheel wire harness are not pinched between the driver airbag and the horn switch, the steering wheel armature or, on vehicles equipped with a
diesel engine, the steering wheel damper weight.
5. Engage the lower airbag snap retainer wire loop (3) onto the lower hook of the steering wheel armature. The lower snap retainer wire loop has a

6. Roll the driver airbag upwards and press firmly and evenly over the two upper snap retainer wire loop locations simultaneously until they snap into
place over the two upper hooks of the steering wheel armature.
7. Reinstall the upper shroud onto the steering column. See: Steering and Suspension/Steering/Steering Column/Steering Column Cover/Service and
Repair/Steering Column Shroud - Installation.
8. Do not reconnect the battery negative cable at this time. The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) verification test procedure should be performed
following service of any SRS component. See: Service and Repair.
