- the loud speaker grilles,
- the dashboard mountings.
Gently pull the dashboard.
Release the wiring retaining clips.
Disconnect:
- the headlight remote adjustment control
connector and hazard warning light connector,
- the remaining connectors (example : decoder
unit).
Remove the dashboard.REFITTING
When refitting, it is important to ensure the va-
rious wires are correctly routed and have suffi-
cient space so that the dashboard can be correctly
centred.
SPECIAL NOTES FOR REFITTING THE STEERING
WHEEL WITH AIRBAG
Ensure the rotary switch under the steering wheel
is correctly positioned.
If there is any doubt that this switch is correctly
centred follow the method for centring described
in section 88 "driver’s airbag".
Renew the steering wheel bolt each time it is re-
moved (pre-bonded bolt) for a steering wheel
with airbag.
Observe the correct tightening torque (4.5
daN.m).
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).

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).

Remove:
- the airbag cushion by its two Torx bolts (tighte-
ning torque: 0.5 daN.m) located behind the
steering wheel and disconnect connector (D),
- the steering wheel bolt,
- the steering wheel after straightening the
wheels.
NOTE: For these vehicles, the computer may be
locked using the XR25 and command G80* (ISO
selector on S8 code D49) during the operation.
When this function is active, all the trigger lines
are inhibited, the airbag warning light on the ins-
trument panel and bargraph 14 LH on the XR25 il-
luminate (new computers are supplied in this
condition).
After the operation, carry out a check using the
XR25. If everything is correct, unlock the compu-
ter using command G81*.
IMPORTANT : before scrapping a non-triggered
airbag cushion it
MUST be destroyed in accor-
dance with the method for destruction (see sec-
tion "Destruction procedure": destruction of part
removed from the vehicle).
STEERING WHEEL AIRBAG AND ROTARY SWITCH
REMOVAL
IMPORTANT: The pyrotechnic systems (airbag
and pretensioners) must not be handled near a
heat source or flame; there is a risk of triggering.
IMPORTANT : If the steering wheel is removed,
the airbag connector
MUST be disconnected (D) .
The airbag connector short circuits when it is dis-
connected to prevent incorrect triggering.

IMPORTANT :
When everything has been refitted:
• Carry out a check using the XR25 to ensure that
there is no fault in the system.
• Unlock the computer with command G81* .
• Check that the airbag warning light illuminates
for 3 seconds after the ignition is switched on
then extinguishes and remains extinguished.
If the warning light does not operate as described
above, refer to the "Fault finding" section and
check the system using the XRBAG (Elé. 1288) or
XR25.
IMPORTANT:
If these procedures are not correctly observed the
systems may not operate correctly or may be
accidentally triggered.

- again rotate the part in the clockwise direction
by making two complete turns, and after this
operation make sure that the rotary switch is
actually in the position previously described.
Refit the steering wheel and replace the pre-
bonded bolt, ensuring its correct tightening tor-
que (4.5 daN.m).
Reconnect the airbag cushion and secure it to the
steering wheel, tightening torque (0.5 daNm).
SPECIAL CASES
Where work is being done involving removal of
the steering, engine, transmission, etc., requiring
uncoupling of the rack and steering column:
→ the steering wheel must be immobilised using a
"steering wheel locking" tool.
IMPORTANT: to avoid destroying the rotary
switch under the steering wheel it is IMPORTANT
to maintain the fixed position of the steering
wheel throughout the operation.
If there is any doubt about its correct centring the
steering wheel must be removed so that the cen-
tring method described above can be applied.
REMINDER: in this case, only qualified personnel
who have received the correct training must work
on the airbag.
