So I searched and searched for a 99-00 steering wheel install
and decided to take pics and do my own write up.
Part needed for SRS:
2.2ohm 5v resistor found
here:http://search.digikey.com/scripts/Dk...ords=SQMW52R2J
Tools Needed:T30Torxbit19mm or 3/4 socketrachet w/
extensionPhillips screwdriverElectric spade setHeat shrinkHeat
gunSoldering ironZip Tie
IMPORTANT:Disconnectbatteryfor 30 mins before starting this
project. Disabling aSRSairbagmight be illegal in your state and I
assume no responsibility for you or your car from using this write
up to dismantle your SRS system or anything that might occur now or
down the road.
1- Pop off theside panelsand find thetorxscrews (1 on each
side)
2. youll see the cruise wires, SRS andhornwiring. Unplug
everything. Youll notice the horn wire is brown. SRS
yellow/green.
3. Next is to remove the wheel. Mark the top of post to mark
where the column is pointing.
4. Slide outclockspringassembly
5. The SRS wires are attached to clock spring.. this is where
you clip it to attach the resistor.
6. Clip Brown horn wire and pull out of sleeving leaving the
cruise wires to be tucked away later.
7. Now how did mine was using a spade with some heatshrink (this
will drag on the hub as your positive connection. More on that in a
bit.
8. What i did was cut the SRS wires to only have a little bit of
wire showing. The Resistor has stiff prongs where i slid it in the
wiring jacket and the soldered the wiring to the prong. (dont
forget your heatshrink tubing) Heat everything so nothing is
touching and its a solid solder.
9. Now that your resistor is set and done, Time to work your
horn. I used a spade connector and heatshrunk it to a ziptie to
keep constant pressure on the back of the hub. Now i have zipties
with holes in them which made it easier to just screw down on the
hole from clockspring. (see pics)
** Double check to make sure the only thing dragging is the
spade connector on the backside of the hub**Sorry for the blurry
pics, my cam is a POS!
10. When everything is good and you know its touching with some
pressure, Time to put on hub. Tighten good of course, and double
check horn wire. re-adjust if needed. Now is a good time to smear
some die-electric grease on the back of the hub. (i didnt like the
grease that was on it, so i used my own after cleaning the old
stuff off.)
11. Attach your QR (note: dot on hub and QR is showing TOP) and
make sure you note which is positive when assembling)
I had to cut off the spade and use the female side for my
ground. heat shrunk of course.
12. Attach your wheel and hook up the positive and negative to
thehornbutton.
13. Now if you did everything correctly, and your sure about
your soldering skills. Re-attach NEG battery terminal, then turn
the key to on.
MySRSlightwent off as usual and my horn works.
