FAQs
Can I install this if my car has a steering angle sensor?
No, this specific part (251765) is manufactured exclusively for vehicle models that do not include a steering angle sensor.
Does this part come with a warranty?
Yes, it is covered by a 12-month manufacturer warranty against defects.
Why shouldn't I rotate the clock spring before installation?
The internal ribbon cable has a limited number of rotations. If you rotate it outside of the steering column, you risk snapping the cable, rendering the part useless.
Is this an OEM part?
This is an OE-quality part manufactured by Valeo, meeting or exceeding original equipment specifications.
What tools are needed for installation?
Generally, you will need a socket set for removing the steering wheel nut and a set of trim removal tools to access the column housing.
Troubleshooting
Airbag light remains on after installation
The fault code must be cleared using a dedicated OBD-II diagnostic tool; the light will not reset automatically.
Horn does not work
Ensure the ribbon cable connection is fully seated and the horn wiring harness is correctly clicked into the clock spring housing.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility
This part is strictly for vehicles without a steering angle sensor. It is compatible with:
- Volkswagen: Polo
- Skoda: Fabia, Rapid

*Note: Always cross-reference your vehicle's VIN to verify the absence of a steering angle sensor before installation.*
Setup and Care
- Safety First: Disconnect the vehicle battery and wait at least 15 minutes before touching the airbag module to prevent accidental deployment.
- Centering: Ensure the front wheels are pointed straight before removal. Do not rotate the new clock spring while uninstalled, as this can break the internal ribbon cable.
- Handling: Keep the unit clean and free of debris. Use only the necessary force when clicking connectors into place to avoid snapping plastic tabs.
