How to disassemble the steering wheel and airbag of the Volkswagen Tiguan

Model: Volkswagen Tiguan BW, MK 2, AD - Years 2016-2025
Part: Steering wheel

In this video, we see how to dismantle the steering wheel and airbag of the Volkswagen Tiguan. First, we disconnect the negative pole of the battery: we need to work on the airbag and we don't want it to explode in our face. Behind the steering wheel, there are two small holes, which we can see by turning the steering wheel completely. We see the first one and proceed to release the first spring; we rotate it completely in the opposite direction and with the same screwdriver, we release the second spring, pressing in the second hole. We remove the central part of the steering wheel, which is nothing but the airbag, removing the electrical connector. Now with a M12 socket, we unscrew the central screw of the steering wheel to remove it.

How to change the time on a Toyota Yaris

In this video we see how to change the time on a Toyota Yaris, specifically when it comes to switching from daylight saving time to standard time and vice versa. We go to the multifunction screen and press "settings": from there we go to press the clock, simply click on daylight saving time, and the clock will change the time for us, without doing anything else. All we want to do is just adjust the time format to 12 or 24 hours, as is customary in the area where we live: for example in Anglo-Saxon countries it is common to set the time to 12 hours, while in the European Union it is normally set to 24 hours.
