hi thank for the info combination switch, need more help, can anyone explain how to take the combination switch off need to change it. clk 320 convertible 209,thank you

 

remove air bag, remove steering wheel, loosen the screw at the bottom of the steering column, same size as the airbag screws. pull off the whole steering column unit/cover. then disassemble the column, steering angle sensor, and clock spring. this might be something you should have a shop do.You have to be mindful of keeping the clock spring and steering angle sensors at the right place when installing.

 

I'm replacing the combo switch of my CLK320 2004. I read your post. You say "pull off the whole steering column unit/cover". Is this the finished column tube shell? I'm at a point where I already removed the steering wheel, loosened the bolt at the bottom of the column and the 3 screws of the clock spring. I also installed the red lock pin in the clock spring to keep it attached to the angle sensor. What am I supposed to do next? Remove the clock spring attached to the angle sensor all together as one piece? Please help me out. Thanks.
