New genuine 7 pin clock spring part number OE 255677W00A / 25567-7W00A to fit some Nissan Navara D40 year 2007 vehicles.

Clock Springs Explained: A clock spring (also known as a spiral cable or steering angle sensor) is a crucial component in modern vehicles. It’s a coiled wire harness located in the steering column, connecting the steering wheel to various electrical systems. Here’s why it matters:

1. Steering Wheel Controls: The clock spring allows electrical signals to pass between the stationary part of the steering column and the rotating steering wheel. This enables functions like horn activation, cruise control, audio volume adjustments, and more.

2. Safety Systems: Importantly, the clock spring plays a role in safety systems. It connects the airbag module to the rest of the vehicle’s electronics. When you turn the steering wheel, the clock spring ensures that the airbag system remains connected even as the wheel rotates.

3. Wear and Tear: Over time, the clock spring can experience wear due to constant movement during steering. Wires inside the coiled assembly can fray or break, leading to electrical issues.

Symptoms of a Faulty Clock Spring: When a clock spring goes bad, you might notice the following symptoms:

• Malfunctioning Horn: If your horn stops working, it could be due to a faulty clock spring.
• Airbag Warning Light: A malfunctioning clock spring can trigger the airbag warning light on your dashboard.
• Non-Responsive Steering Wheel Controls: Your radio volume buttons, cruise control switches, or other steering wheel controls may become unresponsive.
• Electrical Shorts: Broken wires within the clock spring can cause short circuits, affecting various systems.

Replacing the Clock Spring: Given its safety implications, it’s essential to replace a faulty clock spring promptly. Here’s what you should consider:

1. Part Compatibility: Part number 255677W00A (also written as 25567-7W00A). Before purchasing, double-check that this part is compatible with your specific Nissan Navara D40. Vehicle models and production dates can vary, so ensure it matches your vehicle’s requirements.
