Keep your steering-wheel controls talking to the rest of the car with the Standard Ignition Air Bag Clockspring, MPN CSP336. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2017-2023 KIA RIO, restoring the rotating electrical link between the steering column wiring and the components mounted in the wheel.
An air bag clockspring is a coiled flat ribbon cable that maintains a continuous circuit while the steering wheel turns lock to lock, so signals reach the driver's air bag, horn, and any wheel-mounted switches without a break in the connection.
- Rotating connection: Carries current between the fixed column harness and the turning steering wheel through its wound ribbon conductor.
- Circuit continuity: Designed to keep the air bag, horn, and steering-wheel control circuits connected as the wheel is rotated.
- Direct-fit application: Built to replace the original clockspring on the listed vehicle.
Signs the original clockspring may need replacing include an illuminated air bag warning light, an inoperative horn, or steering-wheel buttons that quit working. If a failed clockspring is the cause of those symptoms, this unit replaces it; diagnose the fault first, since these circuits can fail for other reasons.
Interchange: Manufacturer part number CSP336.
