How to Remove the Steering Wheel on Opel Corsa 2001

Model: Vauxhall Corsa Corsa C - Years 2000-2006
Part: Steering wheel

How do you remove the steering wheel from an Opel Corsa? How is the airbag removed? Let’s see how to disassemble the two pieces from inside the car. Remove the inspection caps at the back of the steering wheel (if present), then unscrew the securing screws of the steering wheel cover (where the airbag is located) using a socket spanner. Once the airbag is released (driver's side), disconnect the power connectors and remove it from the steering wheel. Unscrew the large nut that secures the steering wheel: remove the nut and then the steering wheel. Fit the new steering wheel with the associated screws. Connect the airbag to the electrical connectors.
