- I change out the airbag clockspring on my 2011 F-150 due to an air bag light being on, and part of my steering wheel controls failing after another repair where I removed my entire dash.

Did same when replacing evaporator on my 12 Expedition. It took 2 months till air bag light came on then shortly after I lost radio controls. Will be getting a clock spring tomorrow and replacing. Thank you much for the very informative video.
A year old video, and you saved me big time! Doing this tomorrow! Much appreciated! Great video!
Great job explaining, the only issue I had was getting the airbag out of the steering wheel. The right side pin was hard to get to but finally got it
Great vid bro thanks for taking the time to put it on the tube !!
Just did my 2015 f150 clock spring....easy..thanks for the detailed video...
Amazing video. Very detailed. Thank you!
getting ready to do this. One I noticed in another video is you don't need to remove the horn plate. But great tutorial Thanks!
Easy fix! One thing I saw on another channel, when messing with the airbags before reconnecting the battery put the key in the on position. That way, if something makes the airbag go off it will do it before you are in range of it.
This video made me so happy at a time when I needed it most lol I removed my whole dash. Got my ass kicked the whole way replacing parts in my HVAC unit. Just to back out of my driveway and hear a snap and then the airbag light came on. Looks like an easy fix. About to search the part and order it. Thank you so much. I'm your newest subscriber!
I did the same thing removing my dash for the HVAC repair, and that’s exactly how I broke my clock spring. Bust of luck, the clock spring was the least painful part of the whole job.
Jerus Barnett I just ordered part from ford and 5.5mm from amazon lol
I did almost the exact same thing hahaha!! The difference though, my own curiosity got the best of me. I had wondered how many times the steering wheel could turn... My hypothesis: Infinite rotations. Experimental Results: Finite number until coiled ribbon cable is put in tension.
Great video. Will save this for future reference.
Thx , I changed my intermediate lower steering shaft and messed with the clockspring with battery on , now nothing works on it . Hope I’ll fixe it that way tomorrow.
great video, follow your steps and did it on a 2016 ford f150 xlt
was it the all the same I have 16 also Thx
Hey i also have a 16 xlt, where did u get ur clock spring replacement
Great job done well!
Thanks for this video. Only my horn didn't work. I took the airbag off unhooked the 3 wires 2 airbags and 1 red. I suspect the red is the horn. And the three tabs on the back of the air background to the plate on the string wheel, and that makes your horn honk. I cleaned all the contacts and checked the red wire. I didn't find anything obvious.So I put it back together and now the horn works. So I'm guessing just dirty contacts.
Nice
Doing mine today.
you got same problem i got i spent buying switch , cluster and ask many shop owner they all give up i hope this parts will solve my problem
Thank you 🙌
Hello, what size bolt is that? I also need to replace my steering wheel.
Ford had a recall on the airbag clockspring harness back in 2011. I have a 2006 F150, I thing your year was in that range for the recall.
Same process for 2012 SVT Raptor?
Thanks!!!
Did you have to time the clockspring, ive been told by a shop it has to be timed..?
Man do you know the name of the part after the clock spring?
There's a recall for 05-06 F150 airbag clock springs, free at any ford dealership
whats the center bolt torx size? you mentioned everything else except that
I think I remember seeing in another video it's a T-50.
Has anyone done this on a 250/350? Same process?
Awesome video! Do you need to torque the center bolt to a certain spec?
Steve Olson not that I know of but I’m no professional, just a guy trying to save some money and work on anything I can figure out. I went tight enough that I didn’t think it would come loose on its own.
i replace my evaporators i think i pull ny steering out to far to
My volume control buttons on the steering wheel did not work, it was the clockspring.
great vid but you dont need to remove the airbag mount plate
you think a clock spring may be why my horn doesnt blow pressing the pad. horn works off remote panic
It will either be the clock spring or the wire that connects the back of the airbag to the horn circuit. Try popping the airbag out and looking for the horn wire and make sure it is connected. If all looks good there it is probably the clock spring going out.
How long did you let your car sit when battery was unhooked
Probably 3 days while I was working on it (did a bunch of other work when I happened to break the clock spring) But no more than 5-10 min needed.
imma try to tackle this. my horn doesnt work. everything else on the wheel does. horn works on panic button tho just not on the pad.
Did this fix your horn? I have the exact same problem. Thanks!
I am wondering the same thing did it work?
YOU did a great Video brother. Funny how there is not ONE '09 Expedition video on clocksprings. Plenty that say F-150-350 07'-14.' But no one mentions the 09 Expedition. I appreciate your work but youtube has NO answers to my dilemma. 60lbs of pressure and the tricky little airbag spring doesn't even budge? I call bullshit
where in the world did that horn wire plug into?? I can't find any female recepticles on the airbag
edit: for anyone else wondering, there's a metal tongue on the airbag it slides onto
Sorry it took a while to get back to you, you are right there is a metal tab on the airbag (male terminal) that the wire connector (female connector) hooks onto
