  Q: How do you remove and install steering wheels in Cadillac ElDorado and Fleetwood?

  A: The removal and installation of various Cadillac model's steering wheels are done following these steps: To start, disconnect the negative battery cable and disable the Supplemental Inflatable Restraint (SIR) system, turn off the ignition, and pull out the specified SIR fuse depending on the model year. Sound insulator will be removed when necessary. The bolts/screws at the back of the wheel are to be taken off and electrical connectors disconnected so as to remove inflator module. When handling a live inflator module, it should be positioned safely to reduce chances of accidentally deploying it. Remove the steering column shaft nut and mark the alignment if necessary. With a wheel puller, remove this tool from a vehicle needing one. After that, feed in the SIR coil assembly lead through a slot in a wheel, align marks on a wheel and shaft and tighten those nuts on a shaft. Put horn contact in place; attach electrical connectors to an inflator module; and secure that module with bolts/screws. SIR indicator light should be checked for proper function upon reconnecting electrical components, installing the SIR fuse, connecting negative battery cable then re-enabling SIR system. Additional special tools may be required for late-model Seville models. The screws at back of wheel must be loosened to remove them when there is need as well as inflatable restraint steering wheel module; therefore, use a steering wheel puller like this one that is plugged into an electrical outlet nearby but not directly behind or above your head where it would get hot quickly or blow up because these types do not produce sparks when operated correctly by trained personnel who know what they're doing exactly why nobody has ever been electrocuted before despite having many opportunities during their lives while working around high voltage circuits such as those found inside computers & similar electronic devices such as cell phones.
