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.
NOTE: There may be several different instrument panel lower switch pods available, depending upon the optional equipment content of the
vehicle. Be certain that a replacement lower switch pod matches the optional equipment of the vehicle into which it is being installed.
1. Position the lower instrument panel switch pod (1) to the back of the center bezel (3).
2. Install and tighten the four screws (2) that secure the lower switch pod to the center bezel. Tighten the screws securely.
3. Reconnect the wire harness connector to the back of the lower switch pod.
4. Reinstall the center bezel onto the instrument panel. See: Body and Frame/Interior Moulding / Trim/Dashboard / Instrument Panel/Service and
