Learn how to turn off your airbag light and fix a horn that doesn’t work by replacing your clock spring. Replacing a clock spring is very simple, saves us over $600 and takes less than an hour. I will show you how to safely remove the airbag and steering wheel so you can replace the clockspring at home using common hand tools.
To figure out I had a bad clock spring, I used an obd2 scanner to scan the airbag light and got codes b1801 and b1811 which is an open squib circuit, which means the clock spring is bad. Another way to tell the clock spring is bad is the horn doesn’t work and/or the steering wheel buttons don’t work.

Chris, my 2013 Infiniti G37 is not on the service manual for torque specs. Where could I find it?
Chrisfix: just rip the airbag out I’ll be fine. Me:no!
THIS car is famous in PAKISTAN and I think it's hybrid
That is a hybrid because I see the hybrid badges on the side of the car
What about if the turning light does not go off after the car is driving straight, and has to be off by hand?
