Default removing steering wheel

dont think you can deploy the airbag unless you trigger the sensor.. btw the airbag only deploys when the car is at a certain speed.. if you really want to make sure.. just unplug the -ve terminal of the battery..
.. to the best of my knowledge.. the airbag is only a 'plug and play'.. you can plug in the wires and the airbag should work again.. as long as the SRS light isn't on when you are driving..

not entirely true, the airbag can deploy at a standstill. if you are at a red light and someone plows into your back at 60mph your airbags better deploy

disconnect the battery power and let the car sit for at least 15min so the power completely drain from the SRS, then start working on the steering wheel.
