Thanks Laura! I couldn't find a detailed tutorial like yours. I thought it was very hard to replace the clock spring because I might activate the airbag! 😅 Thanks again!

The thought of changing an airbag reminds me of the tense scenes in The Hurt Locker. Always paranoid the airbag will somehow detonate in your face 😂

Hey Laura I’m going to attempt to change my clock spring on my Kia Rio 2013 when it arrives hopefully they have sent the correct one from China. Thanks for your good video. Fingers crossed.

That’s exactly why I made this video! There wasn’t anything out there for this specific car that I could find and it took me a while to find everything I needed

Amazing video. I tried to install cruise control kit buttons on the 2013 model and now none of my buttons work anymore. I even tried installing a new clock spring and no luck. Any advise? Please also share part numbers if possible, thanks

@laurazietz946 Ай бұрын

this was four years ago and i don't remember at all what any part numbers were. I do know i ended up having to get the clock spring twice cause i got the wrong one the first time. I don't know what could fix your issue, i got lucky with mine fixing more than just my airbag light. Sorry!!

Great video thanks, I recently changed my whole steering wheel just to have the same fault. Wish I saw your video first :) I’m also having cruise control switch issues (on both the steering wheels I have) so I’m pretty sure the clock spring is going to fix that issue too. Thanks for posting this.

Did it fix the Isseu ? I have the same problem only cruise control switch works intermittenly replaced the switch itself stil the Same problem

I recommend the BlueDriver adapter. I bought that and it helped me figure out what the code was. I, too, double checked the cables under neither the seats. My trip reset works because I reset my trip odometer before my shift at work. The error code is B1481 and it points towards the driver side airbag so it's either my airbag but I don't think it is but I'm confident it's the clock spring. Thanks for doing your best to show how to replace it. and howdy from a fellow Texan!

Little tip: leave the nut on the steering column so the wheel doesn't hit you in the face when it comes off.

@timburrell7436 Жыл бұрын

Best video ive every seen , Do you have to torque the steering wheel nut ? If so whats the torque setting Please? Thanks again Tim

@laurazietz946 Жыл бұрын

I did not torque it, and I didn’t have to use anything mechanical to undo it so I don’t think so

@jameshannosh Жыл бұрын

I looked it up and the tightening torque specs show 28.9 ~ 32.5 lbs Hope this was helpful to someone. Also thank you Laura for the awesome video!

Hello, in my case the whistle does not work when you touch it, the commands work perfectly and there is no airbag alert, but when locking the car the whistle does sound, do you have any idea what could be happening, thank you

I don’t know, maybe a connection came loose?

What is the name of the tool first used to disconnect the air bag part ???

@laurazietz946 Ай бұрын

it was just an allen wrench with a star head on it, i don't know the size of it anymore as i don't own the car any longer, gave it to my sister-in-law.

Awesome video, my code is a B1481 Driver airbag module circuit resistant high. I'm gonna try all the Airbag plugs 1st, then use your video. Once again great video

This is awesome! I followed along all the way down to the technique of how to loosen the tough parts and fixed my clock spring on the first try. I feel great about doing it myself. I don’t think there could be a better explained video. Thank you!

Hello, my Trip and Reset buttom doesnt work in my Kia Rio Sedan 2014, do you think changing the clockspring as youve done, makes it work again? Thanks in advance!

@laurazietz946 3 жыл бұрын

I’m no mechanic, but for me it did fix it. It could also be a fuse or bad wires in the wheel. Hope it does work!!

@@laurazietz946 you're right, I'll check it up with the fuse and wires, thanks:)

Do we need to diagnos with the computer I have checked under the seats it's all fine

@laurazietz946 4 жыл бұрын

I just used an engine code reader (not the ones from autozone or orileys as they don’t read airbag errors) and went though the trouble shooting procedures until the last thing was the clock spring

I replaced by my own no need of computer program just disconnect the battery wire first negative and then the positive

@starmkd18 5 ай бұрын

Why did you change the original clock spring? North American kia rio models have the 14 channel clock spring by default

@laurazietz946 Ай бұрын

I only did it because after going through troubleshooting and a lot of googling, that was one of the things suggested. I couldn't find a video on it for my make and model so i went through and figured out how to do it based off a couple other videos and then re-did it to make this video.
