Picked up my airbags and module today. The salvage yard left the clockspring on but pull the yellow connector off the back of the clockspring. Is there a way to pull the connector off mine without damaging the wire? If not, my clock spring seems to be fine even with blown airbags. Cruise, blinkers, etc work fine.

1997-2001 the clockspring must be replaced if the drivers airbag has been set off.

X2 It may look good, but it is bad. Reseting the air bag light (if there is no fault) only requires disconection of the battery on the 97+Tim_MN said:
Ok, I was a little slow today. Maybe not enough coffee. What I thought was the clockspring was the frickin inflator. I put the old one in instead of the new one.. duuhhhh. Swapped 'em out tonight and the airbag light went out! Cruise works, blinkers shut off, horn works... Wooohoooo
Thanks for everyone's help.. On to fixing the front end now.

Just to clarify, you can NOT reuse a 1998 clockspring from a crashed XJ whose airbags were deployed, correct?
