Insert the rear airbag sensor pin (stopper) into the body hole and install the rear airbag sensor to the vehicle body with the nut.
Note
If the rear 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 rear airbag sensor, be careful that the SRS wiring does not interfere with or is not pinched between other parts.
Make sure that the rear airbag sensor pin (stopper) is securely inserted into the body hole.
Tighten the nut while holding the rear airbag sensor because the rear airbag sensor pin (stopper) is easily damaged.
Connect the connector to the rear airbag sensor.
Note
When connecting any airbag connector, take care not to damage the airbag wire harness.
Be sure to engage the connector until it is locked (when locking, make sure that a click sound can be heard).

Tech Tips
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.
Check that there is no looseness in the installed parts of the rear airbag sensor.
