F 150 2WD Pickup V8-5.4L SOHC VIN 5 (2004)
Caution: Make sure the driver air bag module wiring lays over the steering wheel bolt and does not get trapped while positioning the driver
air bag module to the steering wheel.
4. Position the driver air bag module to the steering wheel.
10. Install the two driver air bag module bolts (one shown).
11. Install the two steering wheel back cover plugs (one shown).
Warning: The restraint system diagnostic tool is for restraint system service only. Remove from vehicle prior to road use. Failure to remove
could result in injury and possible violation of vehicle safety standards.
12. Make sure all restraint system diagnostic tool(s) that may have been installed during the repair have been removed from the vehicle and all SRS
components are connected.
13. Turn the ignition switch from OFF to ON.
14. Install the RCM fuse F2.19 (10A) to the CJB and install the cover and trim panel.
Warning: Install the RCM fuse F2.19 (10A) to the CJB and install the cover and trim panel.
15. Connect the battery ground cable.
16. Prove out the supplemental restraint system (SRS) as follows: Turn the ignition key from ON to OFF. Wait 10 seconds, then turn the key back to
ON and visually monitor the air bag indicator with the air bag modules installed. The air bag indicator will light continuously for approximately
six seconds and then turn off. If an air bag supplemental restraint system (SRS) fault is present, the air bag indicator will either:
-
fail to light.
-
remain lit continuously.
-
flash.
The flashing might not occur until approximately 30 seconds after the ignition switch has been turned from the OFF to the ON position. This is the
time required for the restraints control module (RCM) to complete the testing of the SRS. If the air bag indicator is inoperative and a SRS fault
exists, a chime will sound in a pattern of five sets of five beeps. If this occurs, the air bag indicator and any SRS fault discovered must be
diagnosed and repaired. Clear all continuous DTCs from the restraints control module using a scan tool.
