Cool will the air bag go off as try to remove the steering wheel (will this course make any elec or damage) to my motor and thanks again for your help .J.

remove the battery for say half an hour, hour, doesnt need that long but best to be safe

should be all good for removing then, just remember its an explosive device so needs to be handled and stored very carefully.
