A clock spring connects the steering wheel to other electrical devices such as the airbag safety system, radio volume and station selections, horn, and cruise controls. A clock spring can fail when wires wear and break, causing a short or open circuit. The horn, radio controls and cruise controls can stop working, and the airbag warning light can come on as well.

Since the clock spring is responsible for two safety devices, including the horn and airbag safety system, it is highly advised to replace a faulty clock spring with a new unit as soon as possible.

Please double-check the vehicle’s original clock spring part number before purchasing this part.

If you are not sure if this is the correct part, please contact us with the vehicle’s 17 digit VIN. In most cases, we can usually determine which part is the correct one for your vehicle by performing a VIN search.
