FRONT IMPACT SENSOR - INSTALLATION
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, 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.
-
To avoid serious or fatal injury, never strike or drop the front impact sensor, as it can damage the impact sensor or affect its calibration.
The front impact sensor enables the system to deploy the front supplemental restraints. 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 front supplemental restraint deployment.
