REMOVAL PROCEDURE
1. Disable the SIR system. Refer to SIR Disabling and Enabling Zone 8 (Coupe) SIR Disabling and Enabling Zone 8 (Sedan).
CAUTION
-
Do not strike or jolt the inflatable restraint sensing and diagnostic module (SDM). Before applying power to the SDM, make sure that it is

4. Disconnect the SDM harness connector from the SDM.
