How to Disable the Airbag on a Kia Picanto

Model: Kia Picanto TA, MK 2 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Airbag

First, unclip and lift the bonnet as working with the airbag requires proper precautions. Remove the cables connected to the battery connectors. Turn the steering wheel to create space behind it, as the first screws to remove are located on the panel behind. Proceed to unscrew them to detach the central part of the steering wheel. With the right play, you can remove it and disconnect the connectors at the back. Once done, you can reinsert this part for reassembly by following the steps in reverse.
