      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 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.
