How to Disassemble the Steering Wheel of a Ford Focus?
1 Answers
The disassembly of the Ford Focus steering wheel mainly involves the following steps: 1. First, disconnect the battery. 2. Prepare a flat-head screwdriver and turn the steering wheel 90 degrees to the right. 3. There is a rectangular gap behind the steering wheel. Insert the screwdriver horizontally, pry the internal retaining spring, and simultaneously pull the airbag outward. 4. There are a total of 3 gaps behind; remove them in sequence. Once the airbag is removed, you will see the screw securing the steering wheel, which can then be removed. Tools required: one short flat-head screwdriver, one 24mm socket, and one 20mm internal hex. Ensure the vehicle is stationary, in neutral, with the parking brake engaged. Move the driver's seat to the rearmost position, lower the steering wheel adjustment switch to the lowest setting, and pull it to the outermost position. Remove the rubber cover behind the steering wheel; no tools are needed as it is held by several plastic clips that can be pulled out by hand. After turning off the car key, the steering wheel will automatically lock. Therefore, turn the key to the position just before ignition and rotate the steering wheel so that the 6 o'clock position faces upward.
