Product Description
This SKP Airbag Clock Spring 5PIN/5PIN is designed for use in select Audi and Volkswagen models, providing a reliable connection between the steering wheel controls and vehicle electronics. The clock spring ensures that signals for the airbag, horn, and other steering wheel-mounted functions are maintained while allowing the wheel to turn freely. With two distinct 5-pin connectors, this component is essential for proper airbag system operation and driver safety.
This part is compatible with a range of Audi and Volkswagen vehicles, including popular models such as the Golf, Jetta IV, Beetle, Sharan, A3, A4 B5, and TT. However, always confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure correct fitment.
Common symptoms of a faulty clock spring include airbag warning lights on the dashboard, non-functioning steering wheel buttons, horn failure, or issues with cruise control. You may also experience intermittent electrical faults or a noticeable clicking noise when turning the steering wheel.
If you notice any of these symptoms, it is important to replace the clock spring promptly. Replacement is necessary whenever the clock spring is damaged, worn out, or after certain steering or airbag system repairs to restore safe and correct operation.
