It's an electronic component located in the steering column that acts as a rotary electrical connector. It allows the steering wheel to turn while maintaining electrical connections for the airbag, horn, and steering wheel controls.
It is essential for the proper functioning of your vehicle's airbag system and all the electronic controls mounted on the steering wheel, such as audio, cruise control, and phone buttons.
Common signs include the airbag warning light illuminating, steering wheel controls becoming unresponsive, or the horn not working.
Installation requires specialized knowledge of automotive electrical systems and safety procedures related to airbags. Professional installation by a qualified mechanic is highly recommended to ensure safety and proper function.
It is compatible with various Audi, VW, Seat, and Skoda models, specifically Audi A1 and Q3 (2010-2018), and certain VW Golf, Passat, and Jetta models. Always check your specific vehicle's compatibility and part number.
This module replaces part numbers 5K0953569E and 5K0953569C. The primary part number is 5K0953569AL.
No, the clock spring module itself does not affect steering alignment. Its function is purely electrical.
Ensure the module is correctly seated and all connectors are securely fastened. Clear any diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) related to the airbag system using an OBD-II scanner. If the light persists, there may be another issue with the airbag system or the new module may be faulty.
Verify the electrical connections to the module are secure. Check the vehicle's fuse box for any blown fuses related to steering wheel controls. If problems persist, the module may not be compatible or could be defective.
Confirm that the horn connection within the clock spring module is properly engaged. Inspect wiring harnesses connected to the steering column for any damage. A faulty horn relay or the horn itself could also be the cause.
This is unlikely to be directly caused by the clock spring module itself, but rather by issues during installation. Ensure the steering wheel was not turned without the module installed, which can damage it. Re-check the installation procedure.
Compatibility:
This module is specifically designed for:
Always verify part numbers 5K0953569AL, 5K0953569E, or 5K0953569C against your vehicle's original part number.
Setup:
Installation of the clock spring module requires disassembling parts of the steering column and working with the vehicle's airbag system. Professional installation by a qualified mechanic is strongly recommended. Incorrect installation can lead to airbag malfunction or accidental deployment.
Care:
As an electronic component, the clock spring module requires no regular maintenance. However, care should be taken during any steering column work to avoid physical damage to the module. Ensure the vehicle's battery is disconnected for at least 15 minutes before beginning any work on the steering column or airbag system.
