Volvo Repair: How to remove steering wheel, torx screwdriver, steering wheel


Question
Hello, need to replace ignition on a 98 s70 due to stolen keys. How do I remove airbag and steering wheel. Thanks

Answer
Ed, you need a 27 torx screwdriver.  There are 2 access hole on the back of the steering wheel.  Turn the wheel to its side and you will see them.  Remove both and pull the bag towards you gently.  carefully remove the contact of the back of the bag.  There is a screw in the lower left portion of the steering wheel.  Put that screw in the contact reel.  You will see the hole.  Now remove the bolt from the wheel and take the wheel off.  You are good to work now.  Take your time.  Roger
