      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.

    5. Connect the connector to the rear airbag sensor.

      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).
