Clock spring

[duke_winchester]

97 GTP. I have to replace the clock spring but am having trouble locating the right one, as I have radio controls on the steering wheel. The part number on the one I removed is 26034978, but I can't find that number anywhere. Are these clock springs compatible with later year model grand prixs (the part numbers seem different when I search for grand prix clock springs on ebay)?

My manual shows part number 26087275 for a 97 Grand Prix GTP, I don't know why the part number is different on yours.

I will look into it. Also, does anyone know how the little horn contact mechanism works in the steering wheel? I think I broke it. I have a wire with one end that connects to the back of the air bag and on the other end is a black tube, then a spring over the wire and then a little metal contact at the end. It seems one of the small button-like projections broke off of the black tube, but I am not sure how it fits into the column.

I am having trouble finding one with the radio control wiring. Will the SIR coil from a 98 grand prix work? It seems to be a different part # than the one for mine, but what would be the difference?

I would say it will work, the part numbers differ only on the last digit, hopefully Tim, Bob or Rich can comment about it.

Dorman sells one for your car, part number 525-006. It shows it as a clockspring for a GM truck, but maybe it works on your car. Kind of a spendy job, 113.09 at my job.
