Cruise Control Switch Removal Instructions

Model: Mazda Cx 7 MK 1 - Years 2006-2012
Part: Steering wheel

To remove the cruise control switches on the steering wheel, you need to take off the steering wheel itself, starting with the removal of the airbag. Behind the spokes of the steering wheel, there are two caps that must be removed to access the airbag fastening bolts. Once the bolts are unscrewed, move the airbag away and disconnect the relevant connectors. Then, unscrew the steering wheel fastening nut to remove it from the steering column shaft. At this point, remove the fastening screws of the plastic cover located just behind the steering wheel to access the fastening for the cruise control switches and remove them.
