FRONT AIRBAG SENSOR INSTALLATION

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Tech Tips


  • Use the same procedure for RHD and LHD vehicles.

  • The procedure listed below is for LHD vehicles.

  • Use the same procedure for the RH and LH sides.

  • The procedure listed below is for the LH side.

PROCEDURE


  1. INSTALL FRONT AIRBAG SENSOR


    1. Check that the engine switch is off.

    2. Check that the cable is disconnected from the negative (-) battery terminal.

      CAUTION:


      • B000Y52

        Wait at least 90 seconds after disconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal to disable the SRS system.

      • B000VJQ

        If this procedure is performed without disconnecting the negative (-) battery terminal, the airbag may deploy even if an impact is applied only to the front airbag sensor LH. Therefore, make sure that the negative (-) battery terminal is disconnected before performing this procedure.

    3. Attach the guide and hold the front airbag sensor LH in place.

    4. Install the front airbag sensor LH with the bolt.

      Torque:
      9.0 N*m  { 92 kgf*cm, 80 in.*lbf }

      Note


      • If the front airbag sensor LH has been dropped, replace it with a new one.

      • When installing the front airbag sensor LH, be careful that the SRS wiring does not interfere with or is not pinched between other parts.

      • Tighten the nut while holding the front airbag sensor LH because the front airbag sensor LH guide is easily damaged.

    5. Check that there is no looseness in the installation parts of the front airbag sensor LH.

    6. Connect the airbag connector.

      Note

      When connecting any airbag connector, take care not to damage the airbag wire harness.


      1. Before connecting the connector, check that the position of the housing lock is correct as shown in the illustration.

      2. While holding the CPA be sure to engage the connectors until they are locked and check that the CPA is in its original position (when locking, make sure that a click sound can be heard).

        Note

        Do not push down the upper part of the CPA shown in the illustration when connecting the airbag connector.
