1. Reconnect the body wire harness connector (4) to the side impact sensor (3) connector receptacle.
2. Position the sensor onto the weld stud on the inner B-pillar (1). Be certain that the anti-rotation pin on the back of the sensor is engaged in the
clearance hole of the B-pillar.
3. Install and tighten the nut (2) that secures the sensor to the weld stud on the inner B-pillar. Tighten the nut to 7 Nm (62 in. lbs.).
4. Reinstall the lower trim onto the inside of the B-pillar. See: Body and Frame/Interior Moulding / Trim/Trim Panel/Service and Repair/Pillar
Trim/B-Pillar Trim.
5. Do not reconnect the battery negative cable at this time. The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) verification test procedure should be performed
following service of any SRS component. See: Powertrain Management/Computers and Control Systems/Testing and Inspection/Diagnostic
Trouble Code Tests and Associated Procedures/Verification Tests.

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) before
attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, Occupant Classification System (OCS), seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or
instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the
system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the SRS. Failure to take the
proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, never strike or drop the side impact sensor, as it can damage the impact sensor or affect its
calibration. The side impact sensor enables the system to deploy the side Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) components. If an impact sensor
is accidentally dropped during service, the sensor must be scrapped and replaced with a new unit. Failure to observe this warning could result
in accidental, incomplete, or improper side SRS component deployment.
NOTE: The front and side impact sensors are interchangeable.
1. Reconnect the body wire harness connector (3) to the side impact sensor (2) connector receptacle.
2. Position the impact sensor onto the weld stud on the inner C-pillar (4). Be certain that the anti-rotation pin on the back of the sensor is engaged in
the clearance hole of the C-pillar.
3. Install and tighten the nut (1) that secures the sensor to the weld stud on the inner C-pillar. Tighten the nut to 7 Nm (62 in. lbs.).
4. Reinstall the trim onto the inside of the lower C-pillar. See: Body and Frame/Interior Moulding / Trim/Console/Service and Repair/Console Shifter
