Seat Position Sensor: Service and Repair
Seat Track Position Sensor - Installation
INSTALLATION
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) before
attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor or instrument panel component
diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery (ground) cable. Wait two minutes for the system capacitor to
discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. On vehicles equipped with the optional Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV)
system, a technician trained in proper HEV service safety procedures must also remove the high voltage service disconnect from
the high voltage battery pack. This is the only sure way to disable the SRS. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in
accidental airbag deployment. Failure to follow these instructions may result in possible serious or fatal injury.
1. Reach under the front seat cushion to position the seat track position sensor (4) to the open end of the bracket (1) located on the inboard side of
either the inner or outer, driver or passenger seat track (5).
2. Push the sensor firmly into the bracket until the snap feature (2) locks into place.
3. Reconnect the seat wire harness connector (3) to the sensor connector receptacle located on the end of the sensor. Be certain that the latch on the
connector is fully engaged.
4. Do not reconnect the battery negative cable at this time. On vehicles equipped with the optional Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) system, the service
disconnect must also remain disconnected from the high voltage battery pack. The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) verification test
procedure should be performed following service of any SRS component. See: Service and Repair.
