Key switch replacement.
Hey Guy's , I've got to change the key switch in my buddies truck, Anyone have any idea on how to deactivate the airbag so it don't deploy while I'm removing the steering wheel ?

you do not remove the steering wheel to remove the key switch.
disconnect the battery, move the key to run, insert 1/8" drill in hole below the switcvh, push button with drill remove, install, turn key off, batt. reconnect.

I'm pretty sure he was responding to my post while you posted, so he probably hadn't seen yours yet.
