Front Impact Severity Sensor
FRONT IMPACT SEVERITY SENSOR
Removal and Installation
WARNING: If a vehicle has been in a crash, inspect the restraints control module (RCM) and the impact sensor (if equipped) mounting areas
for deformation. If damaged, restore the mounting areas to the original production configuration. A new RCM and sensors must be installed
whether or not the air bags have deployed. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury or death in a crash.
NOTE:
-
The air bag warning indicator illuminates when the restraints control module (RCM) fuse is removed and the ignition switch is ON. This is normal
operation and does not indicate a supplemental restraint system (SRS) fault.
-
The SRS must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.
