The procedure for removing the airbag in your Peugeot 206 is very simple. First, disconnect the negative terminal of the car battery for your safety before performing any other operations.

Once done, at the bottom and back of the steering wheel (when in the upright position), there is a hole. Use a flathead screwdriver to push the steel clip to detach the airbag.

At this point, you will have access to the connections of the airbag unit with the steering wheel. Be careful not to pull; check all connections carefully and first disconnect the locking tab of the airbag control electrical connector (red wire).

Next, disconnect the two yellow connectors with white wires securing the airbag to the steering wheel and the grey connector with a white wire attached to the left side of the steering wheel. Once this is done, replace with a new airbag and reassemble everything.

If you wish to remove it instead, use a Torx key to unscrew the central fixing screw of the steering wheel, pull the wires through the designated hole, and when remounting the steering wheel, ensure the correct position of the guide pin located at the back.
