The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) is located on the floor beneath the center console. It is secured by four screws to a stamped steel mounting bracket.

The arrow which is printed on the label located on the top of the ORC housing (1) provides a visual verification of the proper orientation and should always face the front of the vehicle.

The ORC cannot be repaired or adjusted, and if damaged or faulty, it must be replaced.
