Keep the steering-wheel electrical connections live through every turn with the Standard Ignition Air Bag Clockspring, MPN CSP334. This spiral-ribbon cable maintains continuous electrical contact between the fixed steering column and the rotating steering wheel, carrying the airbag circuit and, on many vehicles, the horn and steering-wheel control signals. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2011-2014 Hyundai Azera, 2013-2016 Kia Forte, 2013-2016 Kia Forte Koup, and 2013-2016 Kia Forte5.
- Rotating continuity: a coiled conductor lets the wheel turn lock-to-lock while keeping the circuit connected.
- Airbag circuit: maintains the electrical path to the driver's airbag module through the steering column.
- Steering-wheel signals: routes the connections mounted on the wheel back to the column harness.
- Direct fit: designed to replace the original clockspring on the listed applications.
A clockspring can fail when its internal ribbon frays or breaks, which may show up as an illuminated airbag warning light or loss of horn and steering-wheel controls. If a failed clockspring is the cause, this unit replaces it — diagnose the circuit first to confirm the clockspring before ordering.
Manufacturer part number CSP334.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does this clockspring do?
It is a coiled ribbon conductor that keeps the steering-wheel electrical connections, including the airbag circuit, connected to the column while the wheel rotates.
Which vehicles does CSP334 fit?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2011-2014 Hyundai Azera, 2013-2016 Kia Forte, 2013-2016 Kia Forte Koup, and 2013-2016 Kia Forte5.
Why is my airbag warning light on?
A frayed or broken clockspring ribbon can trigger the airbag light, but other faults can too. Diagnose the circuit first; if the clockspring is the cause, this replaces it.
Can a bad clockspring affect the horn or steering-wheel controls?
Yes. Because it carries those steering-wheel connections, a failed clockspring may cause loss of the horn or steering-wheel-mounted controls.
What is the manufacturer part number?
The manufacturer part number is CSP334 from Standard Ignition.
