REMOVAL

WARNING: On vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the airbag system before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the airbag system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the airbag system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment and possible personal injury.





1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.

2. Remove the center console cover.

3. Disconnect the center console switch harness connectors (1) and press the locking tabs to remove the outer gang of switches.





4. Press the hazard switch locking tabs and remove the hazard switch (2) from the center console cover (1).
