How to Fit a Leather Steering Wheel on a Honda CR-V [USA]

Model: Honda Honda Various
Part: Steering wheel

Video tutorial

To fit a leather steering wheel and replace the standard one on a Honda CR-V, proceed as follows: first, disconnect the negative battery terminal, then locate and remove the fixing screw on the side of the steering column. Lift the central block of the steering wheel (horn + airbag) and disconnect the airbag connector, the green connector for the horn, and the white connector in the centre.

Locate the steering wheel fixing pin in the centre of the shaft and use an Allen key to remove it. At this point, the steering wheel can be removed. From the removed steering wheel, use a sharp object to pry off the central covers of the steering controls, the front cover, and the rear cover.

Free the steering controls and proceed to reassemble everything onto the new steering wheel (first the steering controls, then the central cover, followed by the front cover, and finally the rear cover). Now reposition the steering wheel on the column and tighten the central nut, reconnect the airbag connectors, the horn controls, and the central white connector.

Finally, reposition the airbag unit on the steering wheel and reattach the rear screw.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
