      Note


      • If the front airbag sensor has been dropped, or there are any cracks, dents or other defects in the case or connector, replace it with a new one.

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

      • Make sure that the front airbag sensor pin (stopper) is securely inserted into the body hole.

      • Tighten the bolts while holding the front airbag sensor because the front airbag sensor pin (stopper) is easily damaged.

      Note

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


      1. Be sure to engage the connectors until they are locked (when locking, make sure that a click sound can be heard).
