SAFETY BELT BUCKLE AND PRETENSIONER - 60 PERCENT
Removal
WARNING:
-
All safety belt assemblies (including retractors, belt tension sensor [BTS], if equipped, buckles, shoulder belt height adjusters [if
equipped], child safety seat tether attachments and attaching hardware) should be inspected after every collision. All new belt assemblies
should be installed unless a qualified technician finds the assemblies show no damage and operate correctly. Belt assemblies not in use
during a collision should also be inspected and new assemblies installed if either damage or incorrect operation is noted. Failure to follow
these instructions could increase the risk of injury in collisions.
-
The safety belt pretensioner is a pyrotechnic device. Always wear safety glasses when repairing an air bag equipped vehicle and when
handling a safety belt buckle pretensioner or safety belt retractor pretensioner. Never probe a pretensioner electrical connector. Doing so
could result in pretensioner or air bag deployment and could result in personal injury.
-
To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not use any memory saver devices.
NOTE:
-
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 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.
1. Position the seat to gain access to all seat fasteners.
2. Depower the supplemental restraint system (SRS).
3. Remove the 60 percent front seat.
4. NOTE: Make note of the wire harness routing for installation.
