In this video, young mechanic Aiman will show you step by step tutorial or guide on how to remove, change or replace the steering wheel airbag on a 2004 Honda Accord (which is the same for a 2003, 2005, 2006 & 2007 Accord DX LX EX model) and should be very similar in techniques and process for Acuras and other Honda models such as Civic, CRV, Element, Pilot, Odyssey etc.. Even if you're not replacing the airbag, this step is necessary if or when you want to remove or replace the steering wheel and/or the clock spring assembly.
Word of caution is make sure you disconnect the battery first, wait a few minutes (20 minutes or longer is highly encouraged), and avoid possible static discharge via clothing or other possible methods.
The process is actually quite simple and painless. However, if you're not comfortable DIY or doing it yourself, then consult professional mechanic or certified repair garage.
Once you unplug the airbag itself, it can't go off. There's a shorting bar built into the connector of all airbags, that joins the two terminals to prevent "stray" voltage from being able to set the bag off.
However, that being said, don't allow any strong static discharges around the bag with it unplugged from the car.
Disconnect the battery, wait 3 to 5 minutes.
You need to remove the connector cover at the bottom of the wheel, unplug the airbag. There's 2 T30 Torx screws that hold the bag into the wheel. (from each side)
The switches should be accessible from that point.
Do NOT connect the battery or turn the key on with the bag removed.
Once assembled, hook up battery, and turn key on, watching airbag light. It should shut off as normal.
