WARNING:

To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbags, airbag curtains, knee blocker, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect the Intelligent Battery Sensor (IBS)/negative battery cable assembly from the negative battery post, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the SRS. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.

  1. Position the remote radio switch (3) to the remote radio switch bezel and combine them together. Be certain to engage the retaining tabs (2) fully.
  2. Working from the back of the steering wheel, connect the remote radio switch connector (1) to the remote radio switch (3) and secure the wire harness in the harness retainers (4).
  3. Position and carefully seat the remote radio switch (2) and wire harness to the steering wheel spoke armature.
