This is the first part of the Clockspring repair video, in this one something goes wrong now I have to figure out what it is but the video does show you how to replace the Clockspring so I figured I’d show it to you and show you some real world problems, hopefully I’ll figure it out and then I’ll be able to show you how to further fix it. This is for a 2013 Volkswagen Passat SEL premium. The installation process should be the same from 2010 to 2015 Passat
I put the old one back into the car and the computer light went back out so there’s some sort of problem with the part perhaps it needs to be programmed or something. I have to do some more research.

Even though you didn't end up fixing the issue your video was still useful to me. Thanks for posting. I learned something.

Just did this to my ‘15 Passat TDI SEL. Couple notes for future viewers. You need to record the original coding before changing the clock spring. With Vag-Com, it’s module (16)-Steering wheel. Then when you put the new one in, you just go in and paste that coding. Worked like a charm. Also, the steering wheel bolt isn’t a torx (though it looked like a torx worked for you). It’s actually a triple-square (XZN) M12. As others said, even though you didn’t get it figured out, this video did help me as well. Thanks.

Thanks, I would’ve figured it out but my friend totaled the car so I never had to finish the job

Hi Paul, could you give more details on how to record the original coding?

Thanks! N9w I'm going to try it now to fix mine.

Thanks for the video, however when you disconnected the battery cables you should be doing it the other way Off is: neg first, then positive. On is: positive first then negative. Just incase one of your cables touches metal it will be the ground that touches and it won't hurt anything.

Good to know, thanks for the info!

Actually, after I did this, like 20 times, I got lazy, and I stop disconnecting the battery. I never had a problem with any airbag exploding or anything, but that’s what they tell you to do!

@flyingyakdeath Год назад

don't need to do + cable. There's no basis for that. Neg cable disconnects all power. Also, you don't have to disconnect the battery. airbag only deploys if ignition is on and accelerometers are activated due to an impact acceleration

See how cars have become more and more complicated and users don't even notice it creeping up on us, like the incoming tide. I remember when you just got in cars and drove them without any silly warning light nonsense. PS, i have exact same problem as you, i changed clockspring faults still there!!

@RealityUniverse 11 месяцев назад

You need a dealer or friend with good scanner to program the Clockspring to the same as the one you had in it. Advanced techniques

@Alf-Garnish 11 месяцев назад

@@RealityUniverse Yes, a fault that can hardly be more complicated. I regret buying this car

@@Alf-Garnish I am sure if you changed fuse something would change, I guess. Check wiring as well.

Just for information purpose: This steering wheel gets 30Nm + 90°

@elmstrong Год назад

This clockspring/slip ring is a steering wheel control module with a steering wheel sensor and has to be individually coded for your vehicle.

@maziza2011 Месяц назад

How this should be done?

@elmstrong Месяц назад

@@maziza2011 there's a software called "VCDS"...and you need a proper (OBD-)Connection.

Is your Passat steering wheel kind of stiff? I have had a Jetta and it was fine. I have a company vw Tiguan now and it’s fine. Just got my son a 2013 Passat and it seems very stiff at low speed. Absolutely fine when driving though

@RealityUniverse Год назад

Yes it’s normal, feels a bit stiff compared to a Honda!

hi did you figure it out what was the problem

@RealityUniverse 5 месяцев назад

A few comments below you there’s one that starts with “A couple of notes for future viewers... “ It explains how to get it to work, you need some specialized tools.
