Great Video. The directions were very straightforward and I will change mine this weekend. As a teacher I am impressed with the instruction.

Duuuude, very nice video! Not only did you edit it nicely, you explained "the why" in detail and showed "the what". You're a skilled teacher. Well done, brother.

Before anyone replaces a clock spring/ squib refer to your workshop manual to find out what make of spring you have valeo or another. Not all exact models have the same make of clock spring which means removal and connections may differ. Also ENSURE you run an autoscan using the appropriate diagnostics of the vehicle as you will 100% NEED the CODING from the old clock spring to enter into the new module. If you don’t have the correct coding you will have to put the old one back in again to get the code. After installation and coding the new module you will need to clear the faults using diagnostics because of battery disconnect and almost certainly need to do a steering angle sensor reset.

After connecting the battery at the end do you have to reset the windows and other electrical stuff using a scan? Or it should work out automatically?

I have a 2000 Jetta tdi that I’ve been debating on starting as a project. Like the different content, it’s always cool to learn new things.
