Removing the Airbag on a Ford Fiesta

Model: Ford Fiesta MK 7, MK VII, Fiesta 7 - Years 2017-2023
Part: Airbag

Removing the airbag from the steering wheel of a Ford Fiesta is quite simple. To do this, rotate the steering wheel to access the two rear holes, insert a flat screwdriver, and push the internal latch that holds the airbag in place. Once done, you will see the airbag come out of the steering wheel. If you struggle to remove it completely, unscrew the three screws that secure the plastic behind the steering wheel and remove it. Once extracted, you can unscrew the 24 mm bolt and disconnect the cables. As you can see, this is not a complex operation and does not take much time. Good luck!

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
