Removal and Installation
WARNING:
-
Always wear safety glasses when repairing an air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) vehicle and when handling an air bag module.
This will reduce the risk of injury in the event of an accidental deployment.
-
To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not use any memory saver devices.
CAUTION: It is necessary to rezero the occupant classification sensor (OCS) system when a front passenger seat cushion is disassembled, a
new trim cover is installed or an OCS service kit is installed. A diagnostic tool is used to trigger the active command to carry out rezeroing of
the OCS system.
NOTE:
-
The heated seat element on the front passenger seat cushion is not serviceable separately. If a new heated seat element is needed on the front
passenger seat cushion, a new occupant classification sensor (OCS) service kit and a new heated seat element must be installed.
-
If a seat equipped with a supplemental restraint system (SRS) component is being serviced, the SRS must be depowered.
-
The air bag warning lamp illuminates when the restraint control module (RCM) fuse is removed and the ignition switch is ON. This is normal
operation and does not indicate a SRS fault.
-
The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.
-
Repair is made by installing a new part only. If the new part does not correct the condition, install the original part and perform the diagnostic
procedure again.
