STEERING WHEEL RADIO CONTROLS
NOTICE: The steering wheel Remote Control Head is susceptible to electrical damage from electrostatic discharge, or ESD. When performing any type of service on the Remote Control Head/Radio system you MUST discharge yourself of static electricity by touching a good vehicle ground, such as the door post or shift lever. Failure to do so may result in damage to the Control
Head/Radio, requiring repair at an AC-Delco Repair Station. If for any reason you leave the vehicle while servicing the system, after re-entering to continue work you must ground yourself and drain any static electrical charge. If performing Control Head/Radio checks on a new vehicle, remove the plastic seat covers, as they increase the possibility of creating a static charge.
