Service Procedure
Air Bag Connector Inspection
1. Move the driver's seat to the maximum forward position and raise the seat to its maximum height.
2. Using a flash light, locate the air bag and body wire harnesses.
Note
Vehicles that have new air bag connectors will have a tie strap securing the two (2) wires exiting the air bag connector to the main body wiring
harness. In addition, the new air bag connectors will have an orange connector position assurance (CPA) clip that is tethered to the connector.

bag connectors replaced.
