HAHAA! I just had to take out the airbag, then the Cruise Control sits there on it's own "jock", ready to change from the old one. Job done, and tested, works perfect. Thank you for your help!!
I just bought one from ebay with £49 ,all i have done was to take the old one off and put the new second hand part in!No computers no nothing ,it works like a dream!The only hard time i had was those 2 nuts at the back!One of them i managed to do it with a spaner and the other one only by hand :)
Nice one! Well done mate. Has that unit got any warranty or its just second hand that someone took of the damaged car? For some reason they are becoming quiet common now
@@cristibabyface nice one! Yeah the unit usually is around 450... Then fit and Bla Bla... But like you said if doing yourself then better get second hand one and job done!
I've followed your videos but im having trouble locating and taking out the back bolts on the steering column on my 07 plate renault megane can you show a video on how to do this please
Hello sir can you help me …so I bought Renult safrane 2013 so when I turn right it’s all good but when I turn left.. sometimes the steering get though to turn and sometimes not ..can you tell me what is the problem ??????????
Will I need to get under the car for this job or can all be done from inside? (Steering module conked out, told new part is £960 plus fitting but no parts available anyway so best to scrap car - not on my watch! )
@@AlexTheGrumpyOne thanks again. Quick question, what size torx do I need for the steering wheel removal biggest one I have is a t30 so just want to know if i need to buy a new set before I start. Thanks again really appreciate your replies.
Great video, thanks! How long time would you estimate it takes to do this? I mean for a steering wheel "replacement". I got 2 Megane Touring, cars and I want to change the steering wheels over. Thank you very much for your answer in advance.
Hi I've just bought a 2nd hand one. But on the top where your one shows 4 bolted sticking up. Mine only has the 2 on the right. Does this matter or can the ones in the old unit be used?
@@bigmik3566 if you talking about the ones I'm showing at 5.26 in this video then you can't use the old ones .. that means that someone has broken them off when undoing it and that's no good as it will be dangerous and insecure without them in there unfortunately
@@AlexTheGrumpyOne Hey...thanks for the reply 😎 This car was fine until it was left for a couple of weeks. Flat battery so got AA to look. They jump pack started it but said battery was done. They immediately fitted a new battery. On starting car i got bells sounding and the steering wheel on dash...no steering after that
I've been told that if you get the same code one it's not a problem. I've done quiet few and never had to code it... All you have to make sure is that the steering is straight and that you put the uni joint how it was and etc... Then just clear all the fault codes once it's plugged in.
@@AlexTheGrumpyOne Hi Alex - tell me more about the uni joint bit... thinking of doing mine myself and have heard there was something to watch out for and this sounds like it!
@@PaulKurnyta hello mate. Yes have a look at the joint on the new one and the angle it is at... Try and lock steering to that similar angle so when you connect new one to the steering rack you don't have to turn wheels for it to fit. Because there is only one angle that it fits.
This one didn't need to be coded. I'm not 💯 sure... As some might be. I've ordered with the part number on the old one and they said it's just plug in and delete codes and that's it. Worked for me

@@AlexTheGrumpyOne 30 days warranty :) ,i don't know if it was from a damaged car
@@cristibabyface well that's not bad mate. 30 days should be enough. Good luck with it

I've followed your videos but im having trouble locating and taking out the back bolts on the steering column on my 07 plate renault megane can you show a video on how to do this please
Hi there. Thank you.
Sorry unfortunately i can't get hold of one
Will a left hand fit right r They interchangeable can swop parts over to make fitt thank you
Hello sir can you help me …so I bought Renult safrane 2013 so when I turn right it’s all good but when I turn left.. sometimes the steering get though to turn and sometimes not ..can you tell me what is the problem ??????????
It can be your steering column motor giving up to be honest. You need to plug in to it and get some codes. Unless you got some suspension issue
Hi. How do you get the lock box off? The small metal box that has one electric plug going into it.
Will I need to get under the car for this job or can all be done from inside? (Steering module conked out, told new part is £960 plus fitting but no parts available anyway so best to scrap car - not on my watch! )
Hi there. No it's all done inside the vehicle :)
@@AlexTheGrumpyOne Thanks dude, someone said i might need to get it up on a ramp😄
No not on that one mate. Just make sure you leave the steering straight
@@AlexTheGrumpyOne thanks again. Quick question, what size torx do I need for the steering wheel removal biggest one I have is a t30 so just want to know if i need to buy a new set before I start. Thanks again really appreciate your replies.
I'm sorry buddy but I honestly can't remember now. It's been quiet a while ago. I think I might of mentioned it in the video I would think
hi do you have to do any of that to change the steering rack please?
No.... but its also a big job.
Awesome tutorial. One question. Do i have to read out the values and reprogram the new unit? Or is it just to replace it and drive?
Thank you. In my case I've done 3 cars and as long as its the correct part number you just replace it 😀 then clear the codes and all good
@@AlexTheGrumpyOne Awesome. Will follow your guide and take it down tomorrow. I owe you one. Did you use any second hand units or only new ones? 👍
Thank you bud. I've used 2 new ones and one was second hand and all good 😀
@@AlexTheGrumpyOne awesome. Thanks again. You really saved me tons of headache. 👍
No problems at all. Good luck bud
Great video, thanks!
How long time would you estimate it takes to do this?
I mean for a steering wheel "replacement".
I got 2 Megane Touring, cars and I want to change the steering wheels over.
Thank you very much for your answer in advance.
Hi there. Thank you. I would say once you done one and know where the bolts are probably an hour
Hi I've just bought a 2nd hand one. But on the top where your one shows 4 bolted sticking up. Mine only has the 2 on the right. Does this matter or can the ones in the old unit be used?
Sorry im a bit confused. So has it got 2 nuts missing? You can use the original 2 nuts if you want... Or is it actually missing fitting?
@@AlexTheGrumpyOne the actual thread bar isn't there
@@bigmik3566 if you talking about the ones I'm showing at 5.26 in this video then you can't use the old ones .. that means that someone has broken them off when undoing it and that's no good as it will be dangerous and insecure without them in there unfortunately
@@AlexTheGrumpyOne yes those 4 things sticking up. I only have the 2 on the right side of your looking straight at it
That's not good mate. You need it to have all 4 of them. Is not it's not supported properly
Do you remember what caused the electric column to fail? What code did you get?
first sometimes it gets hard on steering then it comes up with warning light and fault codes usually say that its steering system fault.
@@AlexTheGrumpyOne
Hey...thanks for the reply 😎
This car was fine until it was left for a couple of weeks. Flat battery so got AA to look. They jump pack started it but said battery was done. They immediately fitted a new battery. On starting car i got bells sounding and the steering wheel on dash...no steering after that
Didn't you need to code it to car??
My clio's is needing done and I was told if get a replacement then needs to be coded.

@@PaulKurnyta also make sure you push the steering rack all the way on the joint to get that locking bolt in properly and tight it up
@@AlexTheGrumpyOne Thanks Alex, much appreciated. 👍
Hy mine dont work how to test it cause I replace a second hand one not good
What was wrong with the car? Power steering not working?
Yes first heavy and intermittent and then not working at all and fault codes in.
@@AlexTheGrumpyOne how are does it needs any fluid coz mine is like that too
@@diji4023 no fluid needed for this job
@@AlexTheGrumpyOne okay thanks mate so does the steering rack affect the steering?
No problems mate. Yes because it's all electronically controlled
R new r second hand colums plug n play r they coded? R have to be coded great video
This one didn't need to be coded. I'm not 💯 sure... As some might be. I've ordered with the part number on the old one and they said it's just plug in and delete codes and that's it. Worked for me
@@AlexTheGrumpyOne thanks for the reply good keep up videos
