'12 Nissan Rogue: Air Bag Spiral Cable (Clock-spring)
Vložit
- čas přidán 28. 02. 2023
- In this video I install a new clock-spring/spiral cable in a ladies 2012 Nissan Rogue. It's not a bad job to do but the part is pretty expensive. I would definitely recommend using an OEM part though. Aftermarket SRS components are usually trash.
-Enjoy!

Love that 160 MPH speedo in that Rogue. Dream big!
Lol, you'll never get to go that fast because the CVT transmission will go before you get that close!
Maybe when you push it off a cliff
@@wallyg4445 Unless you drop it out of the back of a C-130 Herc, and even then it will only hit 120mph because that's the max TERMINAL VELOCITY of anything in normal - close to surface level atmospheric pressure - because of wind drag, etc.
@rawcado I wonder how I got that 1984 Ford Crown Victoria retired police car to peg 140 that time in 1990 then?
Hey Mr. O.....quit fighting it. I gave up the fight at around 45. When I slipped those new glasses on for the first time I didn't realize how much I wasn't seeing. Night vision was improved greatly. I went from 20/15 to friggin blind in a matter of 2 years.
Oh I know I just need to get to the eye DR's sometime soon because it is going quick haha
Sorry , couldn't read your comment very well ( 57 year old eye bulbs 🧐 )
My first exposure regarding presbyopia was an article in Fine Scale Modeler magazine. If you're like me you now have glasses to drive/read/function (progressive lens), glasses to see closer (fix the car) and yet another set of glasses to see closest.
When I first got glasses I looked out of the window at the doctor's office I said Wow there are individual leaves on that tree!
Been wearing glasses since 1965, can't wear contacts. See a doctor get quality glasses. All of which need UV protection. They are an annoyance at times, but can save your bacon unexpectedly.
In the days before I started wearing trifocals full time, I found safety glasses with near vision magnifiers that saved the day. Suddenly there was daily motivation to have those safety glasses on. Since they only affect the visual field when looking down, you can wear them regularly even when not working close. Plastic, cheap, sold in well stocked automotive hardware stores. They last about a year, until they get pitted by hot metal shrapnel thrown off the grinder. Or search the term "safety glasses with readers". The magnification for most guys is usually 1.5-2.0 diopters, but if you're like me and want a giant view, up to about 3.0 is available with no prescription. I routinely use magnifying lenses for welding and cutting torches as well. Cheater lenses are a game changer for welding.
Great advice 👍🏼 Thanks!
I use these
I refused to get bifocals or trifocals and in my head I am not old enough so I went for the progressives and now I can say I can see and I do not have old man glasses, even though I am old as balls.
Imagine soldering in a jumper over blown trace while working with a strong magnifier in one hand and the soldering iron in another hand, and the wire that you're putting in with another hand, and the solder roll in another hand....
And still not being able to see what you're doing!
@@hommie789 Only use magnifiers to read (had cateracts removed ) ages ago now 65.
I was a Toyota dealer technician for 34 years and replacing the spiral cable was way simpler than this on all models and took way less time to do the same job. I retired 6 years ago and watch this channel to remind me how glad I am to be out of this trade.
Try doing a 2006 Chrysler 300/Magnum hidden set screw that holds the clockspring steering angle sensor turn signal and covers. First time doing one you will have half your toolbox on the passenger seat 😂
Kind of a thankless industry. Shops pushing profits over quality, the cost of tools, automotive engineers finding more creative ways to design the same parts, customers wanting cheap repairs but can't fix anything themselves...
Or you actually miss it a little…
I love the reference to the Mike Rowe "Safety Third"
Hey Mr O, take it from an Optometrist, eyes are like cars - as they get older things don’t work as well or at all(your near focus!) and replacement parts aren’t usually available. But the alternative is dying young so motor on! Thank you for your great videos and wit! Cheers from rainy California.
I made an eye appointment today. I'm not getting any younger.
I used to have a photographic memory. But with my advancing years, it tends to be out of focus and low on film, plus Kodak and Fuji quit producing it for my model 🤷♂️😏
As a craftsman in another field, I completely appreciate your mastery of yours. Kudos from one E to another
You did an excellent job fixing the car we need more people like you in this world Great job👍
Working on the airbag is like being a bomb diffuser to me.
ERIC O YOU ARE THE MAN, THIS IS EXACTLY WHY I WORKED ON HEAVY EQUIPMENT, AND GLAD IM RETIRED NOW. THAT IS A CLASSIC EXAMPLE OF WHAT I DON'T MISS. GREAT JOB AND ALWAYS ENJOY YOUR PRESENTATION.
It’s wonderful to see Mr. and Mrs. O work together. I wish my wife and I could work our jobs together.
I like the Mr and Mrs. O Show. You guys are hilarious. Would love to be able to work with my wife. Not many guys would probably say that, but it’s great to see another couple that enjoy being together.
Who needs an Airbag, when ya got a Rosary on the Rear view mirror? Nice work!
“It’s almost the weekend”
“…It’s Tuesday”
Love it 😂😂
I got a good chuckle out of that one too. Get well Vanessa. 😷
I imagine the relearn is comparing the front wheel speed sensors to the steering angle to calibrate it. Great video love the chat with Mrs O
it is good that your wife is your best friend as well as your wife. that is getting rare.
Best part of the show is the banter with Mrs. O. Thanks for including it.
I've been stuck in front of a computer most of my professional life, and I finally needed glasses about ten years ago. Your videos are always a great spectacle 😁! Thanks as always, Eric!
😏🤫🤭😉👍🏻
Hey Eric, I find myself doing a lot more work by feel rather than sight. I guess that's part of being 72 and counting! So glad you brought up the bathroom stall thing. Talk about controversy. Love your banter. Thanks for Sharing!
I'm 71 so I know what you mean.
In the early air bag days, I used to work on steering columns from out side the car until I had the airbag out and sitting on the bench. Some one came to the dealership and demonstrated how high the bag assembly went if it was bag side down. Don't want that hitting you anywhere.
I like watching idiots put em under some plywood and detonate them and ride the rectum rocket 🚀 boom 😆
It’s interesting listening to the conversation about snow on cars falling off, ice on the roads etc. I live in an area where we never have snow anytime of the year. So I sympathise with you folk. Cheers from Australia. 🇦🇺
Growing up in Minnesota that sheet of ice flying off the hood and hitting the windshield is a heart stopper
Big 2.5 lol. I love hearing your vehicle descriptions. Im old, so big motors are typically V-8 or larger. :)
Peg Hole Slot Shaft Nut. It’s Eric O’ After Dark.🎉🎉🎉
Hi Eric. Greetings from Australia. Just did the same job on an identical Nissan assembly. Clockspring had a bad circuit. The "clockspring" is actually a strip of flexible printed circuit using copper tracks. Being a cheapskate, I disassembled the clockspring and located the fault. As there were no other steering wheel controls in this car, there were lots of spare tracks so I just bridged across to use a spare pair of tracks for each wire to the airbag (only a 1 connector bag). Should last the life of the car now! I regretted not videoing the clockspring disassembly as it was a bitch to put back together but is now working fine. Concerning airbags, as you suggested there is a bit of hype around these. They are pretty robust. There are warnings about testing with an ohmmeter. I can tell you that you will not get enough energy from a digital meter to fire the bag (7 years working at an explosives test range!!) The real elephant in the room is static electricity which no one says much about!
Ready for some competition between you and Mrs O! Plus some good cooking videos!
Always luv it when you spend 15-30 min trying to figure out something like a couple of connectors and all the other "complicated stuff" takes seconds....
My wife had the same thing replaced on her 2013 rogue nice repair Mr. O
Always nice to hear Mrs. O.
My eyesight started going in my forties. First in one eye and then both. I think it just reaches a threshold where you can detect it. Next time you're in a store that sells reading glasses, try them on and look at a package with small print on it to see if it makes it clearer.
Mrs O cracks me up “I knew you left ‘cos you weren’t there” 😀
Another fantastic display of craftsmanship.
Thanks for the videos. Always entertaining. Stay safe out there.
My eyes have gotten better as I cruised into my sixties because my ocular pressure and cataracts are correcting my cornea as a side affect. As for the car, I like the gauge package... Simple and right side up.
Thank you Eric for sharing your knowledge and indept experience. I always enjoy your videos.
Another great repair video for all of us and yes it does help to see, keep up the good work Mr O
It's funny Eric, putting something back together always takes longer than taking something apart. Good job.
New auto repair word of the day "snuggle"
Yanked that steering wheel off like a BOSS BALLER !! It's not a Silverado steering column video, but it'll do. Thanks for all the educational videos Mr. & Mrs. O.. God bless the O. family.
Great video Eric thank you for providing me my evening entertainment. Get well soon you two!
That's hilarious. I always wonder about the one way fasteners in toilet stalls. Glad I'm not alone!
Don’t need a one-way unscrew driver, cuz the stall wall is probably already ripped off the walls or will be, with some tile work and new concrete anchors 🤷♂️😏
always a pleasure to watch you work thanks
It's almost the weekend "it's Tuesday" hahahahaha. Such a beautiful area you live in!
Enjoyed the video as always . Your persistence and applied logic to overcome adversity are admirable . The humor and guest appearance by Mrs O are the icing on the cake . Eric, Greetings from the fringe of civilization up in northern Canada, you international celebrity / CZcams sensation you .
Nice job Eric. I like your confidence.
Hope Mrs O. Feels better!! Good job as always!!!
This reminds me of the Rubics cube. Looks like you passed the test.
That was a fantastic job getting those connections apart and back together. AND NO PARTS LEFT OVER!!!. I could never be a mechanic. I would be pulling the sledge out. Thanks for the video.
Hi Eric . Time consuming job & nicely finished. Talking about roof snow and I cam out a heated loading dock with 53’ trailer forgetting there’s 4” of ice on the roof made a right turn the ice came off & blocked three lanes of traffic. Not a good day . 😊
I love the quote on the toilet stall screws ! It's like Why !! Not like there a Highly prized item!! To steal ! Screws maybe! LOL
Thank you! Hope you enjoy your week off!
Love watching your videos. I have learned a lot of tricks from you. I have also bought a lot of tools because of you! LOL! But as a CZcamsr myself, I appreciate the work you put into making videos!
Another great video Eric! We mechanics appreciate your patience and finesse it takes to make these types of repairs. That piggyback connector would have been broken by others I’m sure. I love not getting those “ehh, I wouldn’t have done it that way” moments when watching your videos (like I get when watching some other guys channels) 😅
As long as it works it doesn't rally matter.
I think a lot of mechanics are hobbled by working for people who push them to do things faster all the time, or want to pay a pittance for a job. As the owner you know you will be paying for any damage in the end so there is more incentive to take care.
It's a real thrill when six inches of ice blows off the top of the semi in front of you in Arkansas, and it's sunny!
I have noticed all the cars you work on have the big engine ...lol .........you know what I like about you is you keep it real and you show your frustrations and joys you do not edit the ugly out always enjoy watching you
and is that an original Gulf oil hat or a reproduction
@@SaerTurner I think Eric's dad had a Gulf station.
Eric keeps us in the old corral. 😄
Thanks for the edumucation on the clock spring replacement.. Nice..Now to get some coffee in my SMA mug..
I noticed a couple Video's ago that you keep your door remote on the brim off your cap. All the yrs of going in and out of my shop I never did that. Now it's part of my day when I'm working in my shop. LOL
Another good one! Keep up the good work, Eric. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
This video was very good and educational. thanks Eric
Hi eric o ur videos r awesome thanks I learn alot from them keep them coming sir
When I was growing up the clockspring had one wire, for the horn
Great video. Between care care and diesel tech, Ron, all three are my go-to for great learning because I always learn something even if I've been doing this all my life. Thank Eric
RIP Diesel Tech Ron. 🙏🏻. Man it’s been a long time since his passing. Tragic accident that morning...gone way too soon.
Don't forget Ivan
Funny this came up.
My nephew bought an older Chevy truck and it has a recall on the passenger side air bag. Hopefully recall is still good.
Nice job. 👍👍👍
Maestro of electronics.
This is a good one Eric. Give Vanessa our love. We all appreciate her appearances in your videos, or maybe it's her videos. Maybe you're the guest.
Anyways that was a good one.
Thanks for dropping the Whatsup Wednesday video Eric O. Always good to see ya.
weeze wants that special tool!! all tense here studying the process lol great stuff!!
We learn as we go along, re-assembly is always a challenge for us older folk.
Don't know if anybody else commented on connectors, but gray 1st then yellow just the opposite of removal. Lol excellent job as always, keep up the awesome work you do that teaches us the less knowledgeable on the subjects you video on.
Being able to see, yup, you don't realize how freaking important it is until you can't do it. I struggle with reflective surfaces. Silver screw heads and the like, really screw me up. Can't do a thing without my glasses lol. Getting older is such great fun :)
Bless EXCELLENT VIDEO 😊 from many angles. Must admit I love that Gulf hat. It brings back high memory working days. Thanks 😊. FYI: The Mrs. deserves a day off 😉
I like step-by-step explanation workmanship God bless and Godspeed brother amen
Nice work Mr O.
Thanks for posting Eric!
Dave
Excellent video as usual covering a tedious repair.. 33:47
Mrs O exited to a safe area when you were replacing the airbag module. I don't blame her in the slightest.
Eric, I really enjoy your videos, and I love hearing the banter with your wife.
Self-tapping screws are usually used to assemble plastic parts, and there is a limited number of times these parts can be reassembled. When reassembling these parts, I've learned to insert the screw into the hole, push on the screw while turning it to the left until I feel the screw thread drop into the thread in the plastic, and then tighten to the right. Doing this reuses the original threads instead of cutting a new one. I understand that most of the time, you will likely be the last person to work on that area of a car, but adopting this practice will enable a greater number of times a plastic part can be reassembled. Actually, I do this with most threaded fasteners, and I find that it helps prevent cross-threading.
Thanks again for all of your videos.
Nice job Sir, thanks for sharing.
"What's this sticky stuff?" "Maybe I don't want to know." Another Eric O. classic.
Eric really enjoy your videos.
I think I'm most impressed that a Nissan Rogue has 160 on the speedo!
I have a buddy with an '11 Nissan Frontier with well over that I think. Yes, it's the automatic/CV tranny. So far so good as far as I know. He bought it used several years ago and it's been good to him.
plenty of Rogues at the junk yard here in Florida [ it's not the heat]
Both of you misunderstood. He means the mph on the speedo. As in it can go 160mph.
@@andrewkennedy9704yes he did misunderstand. I can say that my wife's 2011 Rogue with a CVT has managed to get to 175,000 miles, but the Transmissions been acting funny for probably over 50,000 miles. It jerks and stutters a lot of the times but then other days it won't do it at all. Very strange. The transmission is very whiny these days though.
"Dr. O" with a Ph. D. in grasping the obvious! Kudos in not letting the "nee san" clock spring get the better of you.
I hope you had a nice vacation!
Nice job Eric
Hey like your gulf hat i remeber those gas stations around in florida throygh the mid 70's you and mrs. O have a great day God bless
Eric bringin the guns.
this video is awesome..!! the family jibs are hilarious!! "I knew ya wuz gone b/c ya weren't there!!"
well shot as always
I did this exact job on my wife’s 08 Rogue 3 months ago. Fairly simple job. Except I had to buy tamper torxs and received an incorrect clock spring the first attempt.
Was everything identical to his experience here? I'm about to have to do it to my wife's 2011 Rogue because her horn and cruise stopped working and I suspect this is the culprit.
@@TortureBot I believe so. Not much to it. Just don’t remove the holding tab on the new clock spring until you are ready to assemble. Disconnect the battery first.
@@FatdaddysGarage Thanks. Wondering if a fancy scan tool is required to do the recalibration of the steering sensor.
Hope the whole family is feeling better.
Great sound effects 👍
They always throw dang safety torx screws in there... classic Nissan lol Great Video Eric
Shitters full!
No problem,I have a T30 tamper proof!😊
When you got the guns, the advertisement was about a gun holster 😂
Thanks Eric. Good video. And you're right bout everybody having a right to their opinions. But some's is better informed an interesting than others. Hope to keep hearin your's.
Enjoyed Vanessa chatting! Eric your truly blessed with the best wife in the world!
Great educational video. I have a extera and would like more repair classes . I hope I done have to do the air bag repair you are doing .tough on my titanium knee. 2001 had it since new. Done it all. Since I retired. From the Fire service..thanks
Brother I like your retro golf hat! It’s awesome!
I know it is a pain. However, if we put on our prescription glasses that enable us to see what we are doing with the small bits the job is shorter and a lot less aggravating. Either way, I always enjoy your lessons.
Great video on replacing steering sensor! When you do work I know that is done right the first time ! David U.
