Guest Paula Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Hello everyone, I wonder if someone can help me? I have purchased a Toyota Supra 1994 automatic Jap Import, my problem is is that even though somehow it has an MOT it does not have a horn I have opened up the steering wheel and found that the airbag is gone and also the horn connection has been cut. My question is what do i need to do i thought i could simply order a momo steering wheel boss kit suitable for an airbag wheel but i have been told this is not true the horn does work from the front of the car but i will have to trace wires through i think its this thing with the steering that i dont understand. Thankyou in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 sorry to hear this Paula. i'm assuming you didn't buy it from a dealer then? you'll either need to get a new airbag wheel (not cheap) or a replacement wheel without the bag and just reconnect the horn. i'd be wondering why the airbag is missing though if it definitely had on to begin with...

Nic Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Welcome to the club Paula /vbb/images/smilies/bbcode_grin.gif It is a little difficult from your question to give you an answer, can you post a pic of the cut horn connection, as it may help to see what the problem is. You can get a boss for the Supra to fit a Momo steering wheel and it should be an easy job to locate the wires for the horn and connect up. If it was my car I would check if airbag sensors are installed, to determine if the car was fitted with an airbag from the factory. If it does I would fit either a second hand airbag steering wheel or a new TRD steering wheel which includes an airbag (I have one in stock at the moment see details and pics HERE). As an aside, I would also check for any accident repair, if the car was installed with an airbag originally, then there will be a reason why it is no longer there.

RIJ8631 Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Hi Paula, Not sure if airbags were fitted on a 1994 import. I had a bit of a problem with mine as well - although it had the Airbag Contact Reel intact it never had an airbag fitted. It was as if they had intended to fit an airbag wheel , but never got around to it. I had to desolder the A.C.R in order to get a Momo Boss to fit Cheers Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
