Removing Steering Wheel Pad when Air Bag (SRS) equipped.

[brackenburn]

Hi,

Horn switch faulty on '93 240 Classic Wagon with driver's side AIR Bag. Is
it safe to remove Steering Wheel pad (in order to fix the horn switch), or
does that have to be left to "The Experts?

Thanks.
Andy I.

Thanks Mike.

I've never done an airbag on the 240, but if it's like the others, you
need a long torx bit (T25?) and a ratchet. Turn the steering wheel a
quarter turn each way to access the screws from the back side of the
steering wheel. Just make sure that the ignition is off, and stays off
while the airbag is removed. I always like to ground myself before
touching the air bag connection, just to be safe. Put the airbag
somewhere safe while it's removed.

Long T-30 Torx Bit do not turn key on with Air Bag
disconnected or else the SRS light will come on
