Toyota 45100-08020-E0 Steering Wheel

To remove the steering wheel, start by turning the ignition key off and disconnecting the negative and positive cables from the battery. Next, wait for at least two minutes before proceeding, turn the steering wheel so that the wheels are pointing straight ahead. Then, pry off the small covers on either side of the steering wheel and loosen the Torx screws securing the airbag module. Pull the airbag module off and disconnect its electrical connector. Remove the steering wheel retaining nut, mark the relationship between the steering shaft and the hub, and use a puller to disconnect the steering wheel from the shaft. For installation, ensure the front wheels are facing straight ahead, turn the spiral cable counterclockwise, rotate it clockwise, and align the red pointers. Install and tighten the nut. Plug the horn in and cruise control connectors, and the airbag module connector. Install and tighten the Torx screws for the airbag module. Finally, connect the battery cables, starting with the positive cable and ending with the negative cable.
