Good job!you just saved me $550 in parts.also for calibrating the Steering angle sensor is to turn the clock spring all the way to right then turn it back 3 and half times.and you should have extra 3 and half times space to turn it all the way to left.if you turn it more it would brake the wire inside for air bag.air bag wire is the shortest wire in all the wires inside.
Nice 1. Step by step so this encouraged me to have a go. I did manage to fix it, ( turn off airbag warnin light) although it seems I'd a slightly different problem. And working on a different vehicle, Rebault Master, but steps all the same near enough however I could find no broken, cracked or frayed wires or pins in need of soldering or fixing, but what I did do while I was at it was to clean up all the plugs and electrical connections before putting it all back together and this seems to have done the job. Might try this 1st before taking all apart if ever going at it again. So good oul WD40 comes to the rescue again and saving €250 on parts from manufacturer whenever he managed to get them in. Thanks for very helpful vid also, cheers.
We can use the spare loop, if available. I have done so in my toyota fortuner and innova. I traced four wires unused, and I made a bypass through them.
Not really designed to be repaired, but as you see, can be done. Mine still works 💯 after I redone all contacts, even those which were good at the moment. Eventually they all gonna break. Just do them all while you there.
I can't tell you how much heat exactly I used, but small soldering gun would work. Its really small contacts, so you don't need lots of heat. Don't go too crazy so you won't melt all around repair area. Best of luck!
Thank you for video. I am not very mechanical but I am going to try the fix. Could you please explain again where the steering angle sensor is located and how not to disconnect it? It seems like this is an important step. I know you explained it at the very end but could you please give me some more detail where it is and how not to screw that part of it up. Because I do not have a scanning tool to reset, I don't have any friends that have a scanning tool either. I would have to take it to a dealership. Thank You Again, by chance do you have any other videos on dodge ram repairs?
Check out my conversation with Guilherme Martins, I explained here in comments where the sensor is, and couple other related things. Just look the comments up.
By chance did you disconnect your battery before starting to pull the steering wheel off. I have seen videos some disconnect the battery some don't, what's best. I am assuming not to disconnect the battery because you need to use the scan tool?
@@marcusslaten8806 if you're not much experienced in car repairs I would suggest you to disconnect it, before you unplug steering wheel airbag. You might need to turn steering wheel left and right, and it's easier on running engine, so after you remove bag, right before disconnecting it, put your wheels straight and then disconnect the battery, and then bag connectors.
And... does it still work? I bet it will break again soon, either directly next to the repair spot, or at another kink. That ribbon cable is worn. But finally a nice vid showing how it works
Possibly it's column itself, not the clockspring, not sure. But very few chances it's dry, even so, not much to click inside of clockspring. High chances it's something else
@@fixxxer6484 I don't think it's the column it definitely sounds like plastic scratching plastic. Definitely coming from right behind the steering wheel
can someone explain me urgently? is repairng these products healthy? i mean do OHM values of the circuit change do the repair work?Maybe airbag triggering timing change ?Am i right?
Fixxxer you know those yellow lines that pop on the screen when when you put the vehicle on reverse? There supposed to be straight just like the steering wheel right? Well i got my steering column replaced at some point and then after that the reverse camera was not the same no more, the yellow limes do not match up to the steering wheel
Hello Sir, i'm having real difficulties to remove the two black connector from the plastic housing where the wire strip is connected to. Can you help me with that please
Use something like credit card or guitar pick, they have locking tabs on the bottom. So insert card between connector and the housing. It's tricky a bit. Don't force it too much, or they would break. They work even broken, but better to save it. The one that closer to the wires, should come off first. Hope it helps
Well I have broke it 🤣 but yes finally I think i got it. Mine was completly riped off, I have to figure out by logic which wire goes to which connector. After 4h i think i finally got it omg
@@JesusRangel-kn8hl he doesn't. What's your issue? Tell me I'll ask him. He had issues with some switches I believe. He got another steering wheel, and either side didn't work, If I recall correctly. Try Australia. They are flooded with g8 over there. AU eBay might work for you.
@@fixxxer6484 well the issue is te clock spring, no power on the steering wheel, air bag light on, and buttons dont work, i know they have a car name holdem ve but im not sure if it fits on mine since the part number doesnt match
@@JesusRangel-kn8hl if you find the one that looks the same as yours with buttons, it should work, even parts numbers won't match. Or you might consider to get entire steering wheel with clock spring included.
Exactly what is going on with mine. You may have just saved me $1000 bucks! Awesome!

Good work that man fixing clock spring.
Good job you confirm what I was doing but I needed to confirm and you did that for me thank you.
Absolutely amazing explanation step by step, well done
Beast ass repair dude. Very impressive
Tnx man!
Excellent repair!!!

Man thank you saved my life
Just buy a new one, it’s like $60
@@LuLu-eb7lt I needed a car for a weekend one day to repair I prefer to repair than buy new
Hell yeah man I appreciate the video my ford started doing this and the auto parts store doesn't sell my clockspring only dealer and junk yard
Great video, gave me the confidence to do my own worked out great on a CTS-V 2005
Nice job....so they are repairable....gotta do mine

Thanks for this nice video I will try to fix it but my question is how much heat device is used?

Fixxxer ok Thank you so much again ☺️
Thank u 4 the video i got a grand caravan Same problem. But 1 question.
Where i can get the song bits sound great! Thank u again!
Thanks man, go to our page on soundcloud here: soundcloud.com/the-red-squad/tracks
Do i have to set clock spring rotation halfway before installing it? Just worried it might break the ribbon if not properly set while steering it .
Yes, you do have to. In the video I explain how you have to have at least two turns each way. Go to 13:10.
Nice post 🙏🌹🙏
Blessed mind
For safety you NEED to disconnect the battery

You should use something more like Super Lube grease that is safer around plastics.
Good job but never open the air bag assembly without disconnecting the battery negative wire.
How did you get the two connectors for the ribbon cable off?
If you mean the ones that stamp welded to the housing, then you just carefully pry them, or cut welded area with utility knife
And... does it still work? I bet it will break again soon, either directly next to the repair spot, or at another kink. That ribbon cable is worn.
But finally a nice vid showing how it works
It broke in another spots, not the same wire, so I took it apart again, soldered all of them, 40k miles after that, still works as new.
Good video, use silicone grease on electronics.
Mine on my 2014 is clicking when turning. Do you think the grease is all dry?
Possibly it's column itself, not the clockspring, not sure. But very few chances it's dry, even so, not much to click inside of clockspring. High chances it's something else

@@blakeerdmann take steering wheel off, and inspect it. With wheel on, it's hard to tell what's going on under it
@@blakeerdmann Im going thru this right now, did you figure out if it was the clock spring or not?
@@misaelroman1215 no. Sometimes it does it and sometimes not. Im thinking it's the clockspring though.
can someone explain me urgently?
is repairng these products healthy?
i mean do OHM values of the circuit change do the repair work?Maybe airbag triggering timing change ?Am i right?
It might, but as I know the airbag being triggered by high current, so it shouldn't be hurting deployment timing.
Do you remember what scan tool you used?
I used Autel, but anything alike that can read steering wheel angle sensor would work.
My reverse camera is off ligned. Do you think if i put new clock spring it will fix it?
I dont really understand what's happening to your rear camera

It should be. Especially same brand. And if they have same supplier, it should be very similar part
