To remove the steering wheel airbag from the Jeep Compass, loosen the three screws located at the back of the airbag on the left side, right side, and in the central bottom area. At this point, the airbag can be pulled away from the centre of the steering wheel by disconnecting the connectors located underneath; this will allow for the complete removal of the airbag, which can then be replaced with a new part.

The new part must be connected to the connectors so that it can be reattached to the centre of the steering wheel with the appropriate screws.
