REMOVAL
WARNING: Disable the airbag system before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, seat belt tensioner, side airbag, or instrument
panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the airbag system
capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the airbag system. Failure to take the
proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment and possible personal injury.
1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
2. Remove the driver side airbag (5) from the steering wheel (1). See: Restraint Systems/Air Bag Systems/Air Bag/Service and Repair/Driver Airbag
- Removal.
3. Remove the speed control switch (3) or (6) located on the same side of the steering wheel as the remote radio switch that is being serviced. See:
Sensors and Switches - Cruise Control/Cruise Control Switch/Service and Repair/Removal.
4. Disconnect the steering wheel wire harness connector from the connector receptacle of the remote radio switch.
5. Disengage the four remote radio switch latches that secure the switch to the inside of the mounting hole in the steering wheel rear trim cover.
