That’s great! Glad the video was helpful to you. Thanks for the comment

[@RS-rn4ox]

Thank for the video, just what I needed.

[@jamesb1221222]

Thanks for the video! Going to pull a wheel from a denali envoy tomorrow for my silverado. They look like the escalade/full size denali, but have chrome trim rings and a different type of wood iirc.

[@randyfleming3004]

Thank you 👍

[@lspaul13]

You should get a trailblazer airbag from the later ones . They look better an fit

[@onetgarage9429]

Thanks for the tip! I may do that.

[@adamcrouch]

How did your horn honk if you had the battery disconnected?

[@onetgarage9429]

Ha ha, good catch. I didn’t actually disconnect the battery. It’s just recommended as a safety precaution whenever working on the airbag system. Thanks for the comment!

[@josephbruyere321]

that would be from the escalade sir as i have the first year denali package

[@onetgarage9429]

Ah ha! Mystery solved! Thanks for the info and the comment!

[@johnbolton6096]

My problem is behind the steering wheel they are two T25 Torx bolts and I can tighten them down in my steering play goes away but even using Loctite and all different types of things to get it to stay it doesn't in the steering wheel play comes back I can't figure out the name of the part or what it's called to fix I'm hoping that you might be able to help me answer that please anything helps

[@victorgutierrez5826]

Good tutorial now I know how to remove the steering wheel, I search for videos on how to remove the Housing Key, but unfortunately, I found this tutorial late, I pay $500 to a mechanic to remove and change it.

[@dat1ghost636]

My overdrive button wont work could you do one replacing the shifter

[@TacoBell_Senpai]

How’d your horn honk with the battery disconnected? Lol

[@onetgarage9429]

Ha ha! You caught me breaking my own safety rules! I didn’t actually disconnect the battery. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@rickc2222]

awesome thanks. another video said i need to buy a steering wheel puller...yours is way better video! trying to fix a theft recovery - need to replace ignition housing...

[@onetgarage9429]

Thanks for the Comment! I’m glad my video was helpful for you! Good luck!

[@AlbertoGonzalez-tc2ju]

[@cashguitar7321]

Thanks. Exactly what I needed. Well done Sir.

[@onetgarage9429]

Thank you! Glad it was helpful.

[@nathenrowe3655]

So I have a base model just like yours were you able to get the controls to work? If you have then how? I did the clockspring and wheel and the lights in the buttons don’t turn on

[@jefferyreep9066]

What if your steering wheel does it have those holes if you're going to push those pins

[@vasquezeli19]

Going to check my spring or fuse before I get new steering wheel. Thanks for the vid

[@rafaelbanuelos1181]

Will the controls and air bag work if you have a steering wheel with the controls ?

[@johnbolton6096]

Sir I need like your new steering wheel from where you buying please ?!?!?

[@ao10s]

Super helpful video, thanks!

[@anthonybird8327]

Thought you unhooked the battery , how'd the horn work

[@ozzymale4946]

So instead of unhooking the battery can I just pull airbag fuses?

[@genuspowell9102]

Thank you for the information from Atlanta Ga. Metro

[@allthingsunrelated2919]

Thanks for the breakdown. I assume this is probably very similar for a 2005 Chevy Colorado.

[@onetgarage9429]

Yes it is a very similar process. Good luck. Thanks for the comment.

[@fabianhernandez8372]

Super easy!!! Video very detailed 🤘🏻

[@deereboy8400]

Very helpful. Surprised how easy it was.

[@johnbolton6096]

[@onetgarage9429]

I bought the steering wheel on EBay for around $100.

[@brycecorcoran1437]

What if my horn doesn’t honk when I put the airbag back on? Did I do something wrong

[@onetgarage9429]

If the horn doesn’t work but was working before then the contact with the spring probably isn’t secured right. You may have to take it back off and make sure the contact is secured in the hole.

[@smallblockfuelie]

Thank you.

@@onetgarage9429 I saw that in the video your Chevy does not have cruis control. is that so? I have a 2003 Silverado 3500 dually, I didn't have the cruis control, but changing the Combination Switch (Windshield Wiper + Turn Signal + Headlamp Dimmer + Cruise Control) now it works !!! Bought on amazon for $ 30 !! if I can find the video explaining how to do it, I'll send it to you. You just have to check that you have the pin in the steering tube (where all the electric cables pass). the pin is square

[@Jerryizzkool55]

Quick question does the buttons works ?

[@RS-rn4ox]

No, there is no harness to connect them to. If your truck came with them originally then you would reconnect the harness plug during installation.

[@BobMarley-vm5oy]

There's a video on here where a guy got his buttons to work. Have to replace the harness behind the steering wheel

[@nandooo4942]

Good stuff.

Just swapped one on my 2006. So I had to pull the hub cover back and leave a screwdriver in one side and use a second screwdriver to pop out the other side to release the airbag. Luckily new steering wheel came with another hub cover because I had to really force the first one out the way. Just thought this might help someone that has the same issue I had
