REMOVAL - REFITTING
Disconnect the battery and set the wheels
straight.
Remove the steering wheel and the two half cow-
lings (for vehicles with an airbag, refer to the re-
moval of the rotary switch on the following page
or section 88 for special notes on removing the
steering wheel).
Special notes for vehicles with an airbag
Before removing the assembly, the position of the
rotary switch under the steering wheel must be
noted:
- by ensuring that the wheels are straight on re-
moval so that the strip may be positioned in the
centre,
- by immobilising the rotary switch rotor using
adhesive tape.
Slacken the bolt (C) then sharply tap the screwdri-
ver to release the cone.
84
Special notes for refitting
Fit the mounting with its components, connect
the various connectors and push the assembly
back against the steering column.
Continue refitting and do not lock bolt (C) until
the two half cowlings are refitted, so that the
stalks may be aligned with the dashboard and the
instrument panel.
This operation is made easier by a cut-out section
giving access to bolt (C) in the lower half cowling.
For vehicles with an airbag, observe the re-
commendations in the section " Special notes for
the rotary switch under the steering wheel" on
the following page or section 88 (driver’s airbag).
12970R2
Move the stalk mounting assembly back slightly
and disconnect the connectors.

Rotary switch under steering wheel
This makes the electrical connection between the
steering column and the steering wheel.
It consists of a strip of conductor tracks (airbag)
whose length is designed to guarantee 2.5
steering wheel turns (steering lock plus safety
margin) on each side.

- the horn connector, if fitted,
- the steering wheel bolt,
- the steering wheel after setting the wheels
straight,
- the half cowlings (3 bolts).
Disconnect the connector for the rotary switch
and remove it after removing the three mounting
bolts (E).
Before removing the rotary switch its position
must be noted:
- by ensuring that the wheels are straight on re-
moval so that the track may be positioned in
the centre,
- by immobilising the rotary switch rotor using
adhesive tape.
If it is being replaced, the new part is supplied rea-
dy centred by an adhesive label which will tear off
as soon as the steering wheel is turned for the first
time (fit with the wheels straight).
12970R3
Disconnect the battery.
Remove:
- the airbag cushion by the two torx T30 bolts
(tightening torque : 0.5 daN.m) located behind
the steering wheel and disconnect the connec-
tor (D),
IMPORTANT: It is not permitted to operate the
pyrotechnical systems (airbags and pretensioners)
near a source of heat or flame as there is a risk of
triggering.
IMPORTANT : If the steering wheel is removed,
the airbag connector (D)
MUST be disconnected.
The airbag has a connector which short circuits if
it is disconnected to prevent incorrect triggering.

Rotary switch under steering wheel
Special notes for refitting
Ensure the wheels are still straight.
Ensure the rotary switch under the steering wheel
is still immobilised before refitting.
If there is any doubt follow the method for cen-
tring described in section 88 "driver’s airbag".
Renew the steering wheel bolt each time it is re-
moved (pre-bonded bolt).
Observe the correct tightening torque (4.5
daN.m).
84
IMPORTANT
Before reconnecting the driver’s airbag cushion,
check to see if the system is operating correctly as
follows:
•check the airbag warning light on the
instrument panel is illuminated when the
ignition is on,
•connect a dummy ignition module to the
driver’s airbag connector and check that the
warning light extinguishes,
•switch the ignition off, connect the airbag
cushion in place of the dummy ignition module
and secure the cushion to the steering wheel,
•switch the ignition on. Check the warning light
illuminates for three seconds when the ignition
is switched on then extinguishes and remains
extinguished.
If the warning light does not operate exactly as
described above, refer to the fault finding section
and test the system using the XRBAG (Elé. 1288)
(see section 88).
IMPORTANT: if these instructions are not obser-
ved, the systems may not operate normally and
may be incorrectly triggered.
