What does an airbag clock spring assembly do?
A clock spring (spiral cable) is a coiled ribbon of wiring inside the steering column that keeps the driver-airbag circuit connected as the wheel turns. Over time this ribbon can wear or break, interrupting the airbag circuit and typically triggering an SRS warning light.
What are the symptoms of a failed clock spring?
A broken or worn clock spring may cause:
- An illuminated airbag / SRS warning light
- A stored SRS trouble code for the driver airbag circuit
- Intermittent symptoms that change as the wheel is turned
These symptoms can also come from other SRS faults. Diagnose with a scan tool and factory service information before assuming the clock spring is the cause.
