Removal and Installation
WARNING:
-
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 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 track-to-floor fasteners.
2. Depower the SRS.
3. Remove the 40 percent seat.
4. From under the seat, disconnect the seat backrest thermo-electric device (TED) electrical connector at the seat cushion frame.
5. Remove lower backrest cover.
6. Remove the 2 screws and the securing strap.
