How to Replace the Spiral Contacts on a Nissan Qashqai?

Model: Nissan Qashqai J10 - Years 2006-2014
Part: Checks and maintenance

To replace the spiral contacts on a Nissan Qashqai, rotate the steering wheel left and right, unscrewing the screws at the rear. This will allow you to detach the front airbag by disconnecting its connectors at the bottom. Once removed, you can take off the retaining nut to completely remove it. The old contacts can now be taken out and replaced with new spare parts; after installation, remount the steering wheel and the corresponding front airbag, securing everything with the appropriate screws.
