Hello,
How Does the Rim Blow Center Cap come off the wheel and how is the Extension tube removed. I do not want to damage anything. There are no diagrams in any of the manuals.
Thanks, Kurt

The center cap just pops off. Under it will be three nuts that hold the steering wheel on. If you want to take the adapter can off there is one nut in the middle that holds it to the steering shaft splines. You will need a puller to remove the can after the nut is removed.

The extension comes off like a regular steering wheel. Remove the big nut them use a steering wheel puller to remove the extension.

I'll just add careful/gentle use of a screwdriver will pry/pop the cap off. Pull the electrical connector (obvious) and remove 3 nuts to pull the wheel.

What electrical connector?

This is a Rim Blow.

The electrical connector needs to be done after the wheel is unbolted usually

Mine pops off easily each time I hit it to honk the horn.
