- In this video, Cliff shows how to remove the steering wheel and clock spring in his 2012 Chevy Camaro. The process should be identical in all 2012 through 2015 Camaros. The 2010 and 2011 model years had slightly different steering wheels but the clock spring removal should be similar.
Cliff had to remove his wheel and clock spring because the clock spring had broken. How it became broken is explained in the video. Enjoy!

Great video! I enjoy the clarity and great description of what you did.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you very practical to remove the air bag, your video helped me a lot.
Quick question about installing the clock spring. I see the clear indicator window and if I turn it a yellow thing shows up. I’m assuming that this is the center point on the clock spring. So does my steering wheel need to be centered normally and not upside down? I was wondering if I turned my wheel clockwise and the salvage yard might have turned theirs counterclockwise.
Thanks!
No problem!
In the dealer, we disconnect the battery but disconnecting any yellow SIR connector allows an internal shorting bar to drop onto the contacts. The wheel controls operate with a regulated voltage and use smaller gage wire, so less likely to break. Just place a shop rag over the wheel and hook to the brake pedal arm, this keeps it from moving during service of steering, intermediate shaft, rack, engine etc. The clips removed on connectors with a pocket screwdriver are "Connection Positive Assurance" clips that won't allow it to come apart by accident. The steering buttons use a resistor of different ohms for each function. This creates a unique voltage drop the BCM can read, then signal is sent on serial data to the radio, PCM if paddle shifter, cruise or equipment function provided. The TECH2 was retired somewhat as it reached its 31 birthday. The Chinese flooded the market with ones that smoked, sparked, went dead as mine is a Hewlett-Packard built and never had issues. It was designed to read UART and Class2 and the CANdi module was added in 1998 for the Corvette with 32 nodes online. Load shedding strategies were added when turn off, engine-off natural vacuum added extreme small EVAP leaks 20 minutes after turning vehicle off. And started removed all loads until running stabilized and EEPROMS are used in IP, Radio, Driver #1, #2 seat, stereo stations, fav's, volume, mirrors, and steering & suspension settings can be different between the husband & wife! So, lots of changes. It is easy. DK, ASE Master since 78, retired.
That's a lot of knowledge and you can tell you have a lot of experience for sure! There is always more I can learn for sure
@@TheSundaeDrive Any time, any question. Safe & happy holidays!
I have few left and can't get my two sons to figure and divide.

Where would the horn switch, And horn relay be located?
Forgot to say you have to turn the steering wheel back upright before removing it. Thanks bro.
Do you happen to have the part number?
great video! with the battery disconnected do you insert and turn the key to unlock the steering wheel so you can turn the wheel upside down to gain access to the two holes? then when installing do you install the wheel upside down because thats how you took it off? Thank you!
Glad it helped you out! I think I did have to use the key to unlock it to spin it around. It would be a good idea to install the new clockspring immediately before rotating the wheel. You still may need to take it to a dealer afterwards to get them re-center the car. I had to get it re-centered.
Random question, can I swap my camaro steering wheel from a 2010 to a 2012-2015 steering wheel ?i read online it’s the same thread just different look ? Any tips ?
I'm not sure unfortunately. If you try it tho let me know if it works!
Can you disconnect and reuse the steering angle sensor located on the clockspring, or does that have to be replaced too?
What size flatheads did you use? Can’t seem to find the right size to take my wheel off. I feel it budging but it’s not coming off
Not a specific size, just one that worked. Not sure what size it was
Does the angle sensor come with clock spring or is it to be purchased separately
That is a separate purchase
I having trouble Getting my bolt off the steering wheel I tried using a impact wrench and a break a bar
Oh man, sounds like you are doing thing. This is an old comment so let us know how you eventually got it out!
Any certain way to install the new clock spring or install it in the same position the old one came out? Thanks in advance!
As long as you install it in exactly the same position it came out you should be ok. Don't drive with it removed. I had to have mine zero'd in at the dealership but I also had my entire rack and pinion removed from the car so you may not need to do this
@@TheSundaeDrive should I turn the wheel back upright before installing the clock spring or is it ok to install it with the wheel upside down? Thanks again
Dear. While u put the new coil. Steering was already turned to full.
How u adjusted the coil turns accordingly?.
And can u remove the angle sensor from old coil and place it on new ?
Thanks
Does it have to be programmed after being replaced?
No programming required. However, you may need to get the vehicle re-centered so that the cars computer systems know where the center is. If your clockspring wasn't damaged or you put it back exactly as your removed it, this may not be needed.
What is the part number?
how do i install it ?
Is the steering position sensor attached to the back of that??
Yes sir!
Reason I ask is cause I’m having an issue with the abs, traction control, braking system. I’ve done some research and supposedly this sensor has something to do with it?? I have spongy noisy brakes with all the lights on and when I get up to 30 mph it all shuts off and my brakes work fine, until I turn car off and restart it then I have to get back up to 30 to shut it off.
@@dougwallace6399 that's a new one to me. Maybe an abs sensor is going bad?
@@dougwallace6399 could be a bad hub
No sir hubs and sensor are new. Chevy house is clueless as well
So after you replace the clock spring, your airbag light got fix
Yessir. I don't think I had to clear the code
Yeah removed my bolt and my whole steering. Wheel won’t come off at all it’s stuck
I can’t find any vids on here how to fix my loose downshift paddle shifter.
Don't have paddle shifters on my car so not sure. If you pop out the airbag you may be able to fix it without removing the wheel. Just be careful working around an airbag
