Seat Occupant Classification Module - Air Bag: Service and Repair
OCCUPANT CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM MODULE (OCSM)
Removal and Installation
WARNING: The occupant classification sensor (OCS) rails have a built-in strain gauge which may operate incorrectly if an OCS rail is
dropped by itself, dropped after it is installed to the front passenger seat or dropped after it is installed to a front passenger seat track
assembly. Use care when handling an OCS rail before or after it is installed to the front passenger seat or seat track assembly. Failure to follow
these instructions may result in incorrect operation of the OCS system and increases the risk of serious personal injury or death in a crash.
NOTE:
-
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.
-
Repair is made by installing a new part only. If the new part does not correct the condition, install the original part and perform the diagnostic
procedure again.
1. Remove the passenger seat.
2. CAUTION: Make sure to remove all metal chips from the occupant classification system module (OCSM) and the surrounding areas
after drilling out the rivets. Failure to follow this instruction may result in component damage and/or system failure.
Drill out the 2 occupant classification system module (OCSM) rivets.
3. Disconnect the electrical connector and remove the OCSM.
4. To install, reverse the removal procedure.
5. Install the passenger seat and repower the SRS.
Do not prove out the SRS at this time.
