Sir, you are a genius. All of a sudden the horn on my BMW X5 was going off intermittently when I was driving. Saw this video so decided to take a look under the airbag. I had exactly the same issue with the screw you reference having fallen out and shorting the horn contact. Screw replaced and all good now. Massive help and money saved. Thanks again.
Perfect. This is exactly what happened on our E46. It was even the same T20 Torx screw! All fixed in under 10 minutes. I left the airbag connected as this saves any risk of a warning light. I just rotated it upwards and supported it in the wheel. As said you absolutely MUST disconnect the battery. Angle the screwdriver handle end upwards about 20 degrees to make it easier to release the two catches, the blade should be edge on to you.
The exact same thing happened to me. This was the right screw and the left has only a couple tours remaining in place. So I put blue Locktite on both, tighted and VOILÀ! Well done, good advice!
Brooo you save my life🤩 i have this one like cople days before, and i can’t understand wtf… now i take of thoes number 5 and 55, and now i can wait till service, my neighbours hate me😂😂
Thanks a lot for this video, since I had the same problem, it was hard to get notice of the spring as you stated, since any more strength you can get in the airbag it self (I thought so) the back of the airbag receipt is metal, so not a problem (but don't use to much force) after I felt it was very simple to get it off. In my "experience" wasn't a screw (all in place) but a washer, that I don't know where from it came from... but problem resolved! No more hoking around Thanks!!!
I had the exact same thing on my BMW. Thank you for sharing this! Would never have found the fuzes because it's all in german. The same bolt came loose so took me like 5 minutes to fix all this. Thanks again, you just saved me like a 100€
Had the same problem, screw was missing but also the plate on the left side was stuck and not flexible. I released the screw to enable the plate to move then re tightened and the problem was solved. Thanks for the help/
Hello, my steering airbag sticks out on the right side a bit. It looks terrible. I already took it off to have a look inside but everything looks normal. Its since I buyed the car. Do you have any idea??
Hi Petrol Juice, I got a 2005 BMW 325 soft top, Horn does not work, Seat belt is flashing even when i have my seat belt on, Cruise control light stuck on. Fuse 5 and fuse 55 are checked okay. Kindly any idea of what to do next?
I have a 1999 ford escort sedan with the same problem, is it possible the issue is inside the steering wheel? Would this hold true for other makes and models?
got back late from vacation (9pm) and horn kept going off as i was driving, AAA towing was available and didnt cost me anything extra so its a no brainer :)
Thanks for this video. I had the same problem. Even the same screw that fell out. Followed your instructions and got it done in about a half hour.
Im glad I was able to help!

Hello,
my steering airbag sticks out on the right side a bit. It looks terrible. I already took it off to have a look inside but everything looks normal.
Its since I buyed the car.
Do you have any idea??
Is it the botton screw in the airbag mount that makes the horn go back after you push it?
Hi Petrol Juice, I got a 2005 BMW 325 soft top, Horn does not work, Seat belt is flashing even when i have my seat belt on, Cruise control light stuck on. Fuse 5 and fuse 55 are checked okay. Kindly any idea of what to do next?
Mines just not working lol but all the steering wheel buttons work except the horn. Fuses are good, horn is good, relay is just clicking
I have a 1999 ford escort sedan with the same problem, is it possible the issue is inside the steering wheel? Would this hold true for other makes and models?
Angel Galvan sorry for the late response; but yes it could be the same issue. Please let me know if that was it!
You got the car towed cause the horn? Wow 😂😂😂😂

Make it wooden with the help of the Woodglut instructions.
