2007 Chevrolet Equinox Air Bag Clockspring

You will need to place the front wheels in the straight forward position with the steering wheel centered, disable the SIR system, then remove the inflatable restraint steering wheel module, remove the steering wheel and the steering column covers, then release the SIR coil harness clips from the bracket below the column. Finally, you can disconnect both the SIR coil horn/cruise connectors, carefully pry the retaining tabs away from the SIR coil assembly and slide the SIR coil assembly off the steering column using a small flat-bladed tool.

You may need to route the SIR wiring harness and horn/cruise connector down the steering column, snap the SIR coil into position on the column, connect the SIR coil and horn/cruise electrical connectors, attach the wiring harness clips to the bracket below the column, then install the steering column covers and the steering wheel, then install the inflatable restraint steering wheel module, finally enable the SIR system.

You can slowly turn the coil hub clockwise until the coiled ribbon stops and slowly rotate the coil hub counterclockwise 2.5 revolutions until the centering window turns yellow. This indicates the CENTER position.

You will need to make sure that the wheels on the vehicle are straight ahead, and that the block tooth and the centering mark of the steering shaft assembly are in the 12 o'clock position.
