Mustang V8-4.6L (2009)
Removal
WARNING: Install a new occupant classification sensor (OCS) system service kit as a complete assembly. Never install only part of the kit
components. Failure to follow this instruction may result in incorrect operation of the OCS system and increases the risk of serious personal
injury or death in a crash.
NOTICE: To prevent system failure, it is necessary to carry out the Occupant Classification Sensor (OCS) system reset when a front passenger
seat cushion is disassembled, a new trim cover installed or an OCS system service kit is installed. A scan tool is used to carry out the OCS
system reset command.
NOTE: The heater mat on the front passenger seat cushion is not serviceable separately. If a new heater mat is needed on the front passenger seat
cushion, a new Occupant Classification Sensor (OCS) system service kit equipped with a heater mat must be installed.
NOTE: OCS system components (seat cushion foam pad, bladder with pressure sensor and Occupant Classification System Module (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, OCSM and
seat wiring harness) must be installed as an assembly.
NOTE: To identify between a production OCS system and a OCS system service kit inspect the OCSM electrical connector. A production OCS
system allows the disconnect of the OCSM electrical connector. A OCS system service kit has the OCSM electrical connector glued to the module. It
cannot and should not be disconnected or altered.
NOTE: The air bag warning indicator illuminates when the correct 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.
