        When engaged, the white housing lock will slide. Be sure not to hold the white housing lock or part (A), as it may result in an insecure fit.

    5. Insert the side airbag sensor assembly pin (stopper) into the body hole and install the side airbag sensor assembly to the vehicle body with the bolt.

      Note


      • If the side airbag sensor assembly 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 side airbag sensor assembly, be careful that the SRS wiring does not interfere with or is not pinched between other parts.

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

      • Tighten the bolt while holding the side airbag sensor assembly because the side airbag sensor assembly pin (stopper) is easily damaged.

    6. Check that there is no looseness in the installed parts of the side airbag sensor assembly.
