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

      • B004VCQ

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

    3. Disconnect the airbag connector.

      Note

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


      1. Push down the housing lock and slide the CPA. (At this time, the connector cannot be disconnected yet.)

      Remove the bolt.

      Note


      • Loosen the bolt while holding the front airbag sensor LH because the front airbag sensor LH guide is easily damaged.

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

    5. Detach the guide and remove the front airbag sensor LH.
