Seat Track Position Sensor: Installation
WARNING:
To avoid personal injury or death, on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the supplemental restraint system before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, occupant classification system, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the supplemental restraint system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.
- Reach under the front seat cushion to position the seat track position sensor (3) to the open end of the bracket (5) located on the inboard side of either the inner or outer, driver or passenger seat track.
- Push the sensor firmly into the bracket until the latch feature (2) snaps into place.
- Install and tighten the screw (1) that secures the sensor mounting boss to the bracket. Tighten the screw to 2 N.m (15 in. lbs.).
- Reconnect the seat wire harness connector (4) to the sensor connector receptacle located on the end of the sensor. Be certain that the latch on the connector is fully engaged.
- Do not reconnect the battery negative cable at this time. The supplemental restraint system verification test procedure should be performed following service of any supplemental restraint system component. (Refer to ELECTRICAL/RESTRAINTS - STANDARD PROCEDURE - VERIFICATION TEST) .
- Following successful completion of the supplemental restraint system verification test procedure, perform the Occupant Classification System Verification Test using a diagnostic scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic procedures.
