Open the rear cover of the steering wheel and locate the internal fixing screws. Use tools to remove the fixing screws, then pull the airbag outward with force to detach it. Disconnect the wiring harness connector to complete the removal operation.
Removing the airbag of an Arrizo 5 is no small matter, and I must warn you, the risks are too high. As someone who has worked on cars for years, I've seen many people attempt DIY repairs only to have the airbag accidentally deploy and cause injuries. The explosive device inside the airbag is no joke once triggered. Generally, before removal, you must disconnect the battery's negative terminal and wait at least 15 minutes for the system to discharge. Then, use professional tools to loosen the steering wheel screws and carefully remove the cover. However, there are sensor connectors under the steering wheel—if you accidentally damage them, the repair costs will be even higher. Additionally, the Arrizo 5's design is quite sophisticated, so you also need to consider whether the computer system might throw error codes. If you really need to do it—say, to replace the steering wheel or a faulty airbag—I suggest not skimping on the cost and just taking it to a professional repair shop or an authorized dealership. Safety comes first—driving without an airbag is like having no protective charm. Remember, don't take the risk yourself; spend a little money to stay safe.
