Driver Air Bag Module: Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Mercury Mariner and 2008 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Connect the driver air bag module and horn electrical connectors.

NOTE: Make sure the wiring harness is routed away from the driver air bag module hooks during installation.

Align the driver air bag module hooks to the steering wheel and seat the 3 driver air bag module hooks.
- When the 3 driver air bag module hooks are seated, gently pull outward at the corners of the driver air bag module to make sure all 3 hooks are fully seated. Check the driver air bag module and trim cover for correct movement when applying the horn.
Repower the SRS. For additional information, refer to Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Depowering and Repowering in the General Procedures portion of this section.
