Ranger 4WD V6-4.0L (2009)
Removal and Installation
WARNING: Never probe the electrical connectors on safety belt buckle/retractor pretensioners or adaptive load limiting retractors. Failure to
follow this instruction may result in the accidental deployment of the safety belt pretensioners or adaptive load limiting retractors, which
increases the risk of serious personal injury or death.
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: Occupant Classification Sensor (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: 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.
1. Depower the SRS. For additional information, refer to Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Depowering and Repowering See: Air Bag
Systems/Air Bag(s) Arming and Disarming/Service and Repair/Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Depowering and Repowering.
2. Remove the passenger seat.
3. Remove the seat backrest.
4. NOTE: Note position of wire routing for installation.
Release the seat wiring harness retainer clip and detach the seat wiring harness connector from the seat cushion frame.
5. Release the cushion trim cover rear J-clip.
6. Remove the 4 seat track-to-cushion frame bolts and the seat track assembly.
7. Release the remaining cushion trim cover J-clips.
8. NOTICE: An Occupant Classification Sensor (OCS) system service kit has the OCS system bladder attached to the seat cushion foam
pad. Do not separate the OCS system bladder from the seat cushion foam pad. Failure to do so can result in component failure.
