How do you remove the steering wheel from a Citroen C3? Before removing the steering wheel, disconnect the battery terminals located in the engine bay. Follow these steps to proceed with the removal: remove the inspection caps at the back of the steering wheel (if present), then, using a socket or screwdriver, undo the screws securing the steering wheel cover (where the airbag is located).

Once the airbag (driver's side) is released, disconnect the power connectors and remove it. Using a socket, undo the large central bolt and take the steering wheel off its mount.

For reassembly: connect the power connectors, then press the steering wheel with your hands (until it fits into its mount) and subsequently tighten the large bolt.
