Grant Part #64036 - Revolution - Manual (Page 2)

DISABLING AND REMOVAL OF THE AIRBAG MODULE
1. Write down all of your radio presets as these will be lost when you disconnect the battery cable. Turn
the ignition key to unlock the column, if your vehicle has a telescopic column extend all the way out
and lock in place.
2.
NOTICE - Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable and wait at least 2 full minutes for the
circuit to completely discharge before proceeding. CAUTION: Failure to fully deplete the backup
power supply could result in an accidental deployment and possible injury.
3. From behind the wheel (you may have to turn the wheel to the left and right slightly to access the
screws) remove the two screws (3) holding the airbag module (1) to the wheel (2) with a 10mm
socket. See Illustration 1.

4. Carefully pull the airbag module rearward away from the steering wheel just far enough to
disconnect the wires from the back of the module (see Illustration 2 above). Do not pull on the
clockspring wires or pry on the connector insulator to disengage the connector from the
receptacle on the clockspring. Improper removal of these pigtail wires can result in damage
to the airbag circuits or connector insulators. Do not turn the clockspring mechanism now or
at any time during the installation. Disconnect the 2 airbag squib connectors by squeezing and
pulling them straight away from the airbag inflator (number 3) and then disconnect the horn
connector (number 4) from the airbag module.
5. Remove the airbag module completely from the wheel and place the module face up on the floor,
seat or workbench. If you carry the module make sure the trim cover is pointed AWAY from your
body.
REMOVING ORIGINAL STEERING WHEEL FROM THE VEHICLE
1. Position the steering wheel so that it is pointed straight ahead. Loosen the steering wheel retainer
bolt several turns but leave the bolt in the column. Install a steering wheel puller (number 2) as
shown in Illustration 3 below and loosen the wheel on the shaft per the puller directions using the
center bolt to push against. Remove the puller, then the center bolt and pull the steering wheel up to
separate it from the shaft.
