Escape 2WD V6-3.0L (2009)
Removal
NOTE: Occupant Classification Sensor (OCS) system components, seat cushion foam pad, bladder with pressure sensor and OCSM, are calibrated to
each other and are serviced as an assembly. The OCS system components are not to be installed separately. If a new OCS system, OCS system
component or seat cushion foam pad are needed, a new OCS system service kit (seat cushion foam pad, bladder with pressure sensor and OCSM) must
be installed as an assembly.
NOTE: To identify between a production OCS system and a service OCS system (OCS service kit), inspect the electrical connector. A
production OCS system allows the disconnect of the OCSM electrical connector. A service OCS system (OCS service kit) has the electrical connector
glued to the OCSM. It cannot and should not be disconnected or altered.
NOTE: The air bag warning indicator illuminates when the correct Restraints Control Module (RCM) fuse is removed and the ignition is ON.
NOTE: The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.
