COVER
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 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 SRS. 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. On vehicles equipped with front bucket seats, remove the front floor console from the vehicle. See: Body and Frame/Interior Moulding /
Trim/Console/Service and Repair/Floor Console - Removal.
NOTE: The front bench seat assembly must be unfastened from the floor panel, but need not be removed from the vehicle for access to the
Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) cover for service.
3. On vehicles equipped with a front bench seat, detach the front seat from the floor panel. See: Body and Frame/Seats/Service and Repair.
4. Using a trim stick or another suitable wide flat-bladed tool, gently pry the latch feature on either side of the ORC cover (1) away from the base of
the ORC (2) far enough to disengage the cover from the module.
5. Remove the ORC cover from over the ORC.
