Mariner 2WD V6-3.0L (2008)
Part 2
Disassembly
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.
-
Never probe the electrical connectors on air bag, safety canopy or side air curtain modules. Failure to follow this instruction may result in
the accidental deployment of these modules, which increases the risk of serious personal injury or death.
CAUTION:
-
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 is installed or an OCS system service kit is installed. A scan tool is used to carry out the OCS system reset command.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in system failure and the incorrect operation of the OCS system.
-
Do not install a new heater mat on a front passenger seat cushion, it is not serviceable separately. If a new cushion heater mat is needed
on the front passenger seat, an occupant classification sensor (OCS) system service kit equipped with a heater mat must be installed.
Failure to follow this instruction may result in incorrect operation of the OCS system. Refer to Air Bag Systems for the OCS removal and
installation procedure.
NOTE:
-
Occupant classification sensor (OCS) system components (seat wiring harness, 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, an OCS system service kit (seat cushion
foam pad, bladder with pressure sensor, seat wiring harness and OCSM) must be installed as an assembly.
-
To identify between a production OCS system and a OCS system service kit, inspect the OCSM electrical connector.
A production OCS system allows the disconnection of the OCSM electrical connector.
An OCS system service kit has the electrical connector glued to the module, it cannot and should not be disconnected or altered.
-
The air bag warning indicator 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.
All seats
1. Remove the passenger front seat.
2. Remove the seat backrest.
3. Remove the safety belt buckle pretensioner.
-
Disconnect and detach the safety belt buckle pretensioner and buckle switch electrical connectors from the seat track.
-
Detach the wiring harness pin-type retainer.
-
Route the wiring harness from between the seat track and cushion frame.
