REMOVAL
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the supplemental restraint system before attempting
any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect
and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before performing further
diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the supplemental restraint system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result
in accidental airbag deployment.
1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable. Wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before further service.
2. Reach under the front seat cushion to access the seat track position sensor (4) in a bracket (1) located on the inboard side of either the inner or
outer, driver or passenger seat track (5).
3. Disconnect the seat wire harness connector (3) from the sensor connector receptacle located on the end of the sensor.
4. Using a small screwdriver, depress the snap feature (2) and pull the connector end of the sensor out of the bracket.
5. Remove the sensor from under the front seat.
