In this video I install a new clock-spring/spiral cable in a ladies 2012 Nissan Rogue. It’s not a bad job to do but the part is pretty expensive. I would definitely recommend using an OEM part though. Aftermarket SRS components are usually trash.
-Enjoy!

The plastic gods were looking after you.
Here's the difference. When my wife gets sick she has 140 lbs of sickness. When I get sick I have over 200 lbs of sickness.
"OH Please…" ain't that the truth.
Once up-on a time, Padmé was on a Formular 1 circit, but unfortunatly, she becaum a vicktum of Mad Max. She tryd to escaip on Ruot 666 in a 2000 hp Supra, bekaws she herd it was the fastist car arownd. The earf was gettting hottrr and hottrr, and she new she had to leave befor it was too late.
As she was driving, she met a 95-year-old Telsa invister who was ridiing in a self-drayving car. He was verry ritch and offored to mary her so she could inherit his fortune when he dies. Padmé thoht it was a good idea and agried to marry him.
But even tho she was maryed to a ritch man, she stil had feelins for a Chad who was moor interested in his poster of a Nissan Rogue than her. She was disapointed that he wouldn't commit to her and wanted to be with the poster instead.
In the end, Padmé was happy with her ritch husband and they livd happily evr after.
I would take your worst day over most mechanics best day, hands down!!!! Keep pluggin
I feel sorry for anyone that has to work on any Nissan products after 95
American car makers would have made 15 separate modules and connectors, just saying.
"Toilet stall" screws because it was engineered by lawyers!
Yeah I've actually seen a sheet of ice come off of an 18-wheeler that I was behind. The weirdest thing I've ever seen was a huge sheet of ice fall right out of the sky oh, it was actually pretty scary I was going by a small airport when that happened so all I could figure was it came off of the wing of a plane. I can tell you when it hit the ground it went through some trees before it did and took every single Branch off those trees pretty scary stuff
As a person a few years ahead of you in the aging eyes category…progressive lenses are horrible to work on cars with. I recommend readers and distance in separate pairs of glasses as I am always tilting my fool head all over trying to focus on the ^#^$&*#&$& part I need to remove. Still need a pair of readers for working on the cars…hmm. Only had progressives two or three years…I'll get around to it! Nice video, Eric, thanks for the entertainment and information.
Where are your glasses lol!! Good video!
I know it is a pain. However, if we put on our prescription glasses that enable us to see what we are doing with the small bits the job is shorter and a lot less aggravating. Either way, I always enjoy your lessons.
"My eyes aren't doing good this morning." Whenever working around the airbag and its connectors, always wear eyepro. Even if the battery is disconnected, a static charge can cause a spark and trigger the inflator.
One of my incarnations in this life was a a maintenance supervisor for a million square foot mall. If you didn't use non-tamper hardware people, read drug addicts, will steal it for scrap value. Don't we live in a wonderful world?
Love watching your videos. I have learned a lot of tricks from you. I have also bought a lot of tools because of you! LOL! But as a YouTuber myself, I appreciate the work you put into making videos!
If it's a Nissan doesn't that make the steering column cowl screws Firripps !
So here's an interesting question? What automaker has the best plastics? Both interior and parts ? I noticed that when he was doing the Rogue here that the plastic components seemed pretty good !
I have heard people saying that Nisson interior plastics deteriorate quickly !
So, am I the only one to notice the ambitious Nissan Rogue with the 160 MPH speedometer? Maybe they just stuck there hand in the Z car parts bin ??!
A head- or hat-mounted light will help your vision a surprising amount.
