If the steering wheel sits very tightly on the splines of the upper shaft, then pull the wheel towards you, striking the end of the shaft through a soft metal drift.
Using a Phillips screwdriver, unscrew the self-tapping screw securing the lower part of the casing to the steering column switch and the four screws connecting the upper and lower parts of the casing
Lowering the lower part of the casing, remove the hazard warning switch
Using a screwdriver, disconnect the clamp securing the wires of the steering column switch.

Assembly is carried out in reverse order
Before installing the steering wheel, we install the movable ring (switching) of the steering column switch so that the protrusion with the hole (for clarity, the hole is filled with white paint) is located on top, and we put on the steering wheel in the straight-line driving position.
