Default Removal of Harn Pad / Air Bag Module on 981 Steering Wheel

My horn is sticking.

I suspect it's a build up of gunk from perhaps the previous owner over use of cleaning product, etc.

I the horn pad is pressed it won't release, but if I pry on it to pull it out a mm or 2 it stops blowing. The pad feels gummy as well.

Would like to pull it to clean, but can't seem to find good directions.

Thanks in Advance -- H_D

There's a God tutorial on Planet 9, and it's really easy to remove the airbag, remove the negative terminal battery cable, wait 20 minutes, pop the airbag out, unplug the wiring, and it's done. There's a hole or soft spot underneath the wheel housing that you run a torx screwdriver up to locate the release lever for the bag. Just Google airbag removal porsche and you should find all you need.
