Air Bag Clockspring
I was "pretty careful" when removing the steering wheel and counted three revolutions until the clock spring unwound. How critical is that setting when re-installing the wheel & airbag? This car is the one year only "91 940SE.

Thanks Lev. I only learned about that secret "screw" from another Forum this morning. I knew it unwound 3 turns when I removed the wheel and I had concluded the whole rotation of the wheel logic but I couldn't find what you just told me when I searched this Forum. So simple when you have the right info. I'm back on the road. Next can of worms is that now the speedo quit and I know that can be one of several things.

I have the whole gauge cluster from my wrecked '93 940. Is there a refurbishing outfit either of you would trust? There's no time crunch so I could send this spare one in to get reworked if you think that would be a good way to go. The car is cosmetically so fine I plan on keeping it for the duration. TD

Well that does make sense. The SE is a much "fancier ride". You guys are great. Your wealth of knowledge & experience save me a lot of frustration. I guess it's time to investigate a GPS Speedo. I suspect the odometer isn't working either but I guess that will only make the car worth more when my kids sell it someday!! TD

It occurred to me that since I'm using the ECU from the '93 car, could there be an incompatibility issue there affecting the speedometer? It worked perfectly for the first week after I completed the engine exchange. I could easily put the '91 ECU back in to see if there is a change. TD
