Airbag calibration??

Postby Murphyb23 » Wed Sep 09, 2026 1:25 pm

Mk2 focus wheel went in my mk1 connect yesterday.
Seemed good at first, feels lush, only drove away and realised it was on the piss and not centred! So apart it came... This time when I connected the battery, the horn started blaring and I could not figure out how to correct it. Even after waiting 10/15 mins for any access charge.
Online I have come across that the airbag may need calibrating and that this can trigger the horn etc.
Does anyone have any ideas how I could go about fixing this?
Am I missing any connections?
This replacement wheel and airbag only has the 3 cables. Whereas my old rubber wheel had a few more. The silver tab connection point near the centre of the airbag is without anything to connect to and I am wondering if something is missing.
Driving around at the mo with no airbag/horn and booked in at a ford specialist in a fortnight but hoping to sort before..... Cheers
