Essential Steering Wheel Spiral Cable Replacement

The spiral cable, also called the clock spring, is a crucial component in your vehicle’s steering system. This part is responsible for safely transmitting electrical signals between the steering wheel and controls such as the airbag, horn, and audio buttons, even as you turn the wheel. Without a functioning spiral cable, these essential features can fail, putting both driver safety and convenience at risk.

How It Operates

The spiral cable sits snugly inside the steering column, coiling and uncoiling as you turn the wheel. It maintains a consistent electrical connection no matter which angle the steering wheel is turned, thanks to its wound design.

• Airbag warning light on dashboard
• Loss of horn function
• Steering wheel control buttons stop working
• Potential safety hazards during accidents
