1. Position the side impact sensor (4) to the large hole above the retractor mounting hole in the inner B-pillar (2).
2. Reconnect the body wire harness connector (1) to the sensor connector receptacle.
3. Reach through the large hole above the retractor mounting hole in the inner B-pillar to position and engage the anti-rotation pin and the stud on the
side impact sensor to the locating slot and mounting hole from the inside of the B-pillar.
4. Install and tighten the nut (3) that secures the side impact sensor stud to the inner B-pillar. Tighten the nut to 8 Nm (70 in. lbs.).

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.
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury, never strike or drop the side impact sensor, as it can damage the impact sensor or affect its
calibration. The side impact sensor enables the system to deploy the side Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) components. 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 side SRS component deployment.
1. Position the side impact sensor (2) to the large hole above the retractor mounting hole in the inner B-pillar (1).
2. Reconnect the body wire harness connector (4) to the sensor connector receptacle.
