Passenger Occupant Detection System Pressure Sensor, Removing And Installing: Removing
- Observe the safety precautions for pyrotechnical components. Refer to SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WHEN WORKING WITH PYROTECHNIC COMPONENTS .
- Before handling pyrotechnic components (for example, disconnecting the connector), the person handling it must "Discharge Static Electricity". For example, this can be done by briefly touching the door striker.
-- Remove the front seat. Refer to FRONT SEAT, REMOVING AND INSTALLING .
-- Secure the seat on the seat repair fixture. Refer to FRONT SEAT, MOUNTING ON FIXTURE FOR SEAT REPAIR .
-- Remove the tunnel-side seat trim panel. Refer to TUNNEL-SIDE SEAT TRIM, REMOVING AND INSTALLING .
-- Remove the sill-side seat trim. Refer to SILL-SIDE SEAT TRIM PANEL, REMOVING AND INSTALLING .
-- Remove the seat trim bracket. Refer to SEAT TRIM PANEL BRACKET, REMOVING AND INSTALLING .

The components pictured can vary in form and appearance from the present vehicle. However the assembly and functionality are identical.
-- Remove the front seat backrest -1-. Refer to FRONT BACKREST, REMOVING AND INSTALLING .
-- Disconnect the connector -4- for the passenger occupant detection system pressure sensor -2- from the Passenger Occupant Detection System Control Module -J706- -3-.
-- Loosen the passenger occupant detection system pressure sensor wiring harness -5- from the seat frame.
-- Remove the seat cushion with passenger occupant detection system pressure sensor -2- and the cover from the seat frame. Refer to SEAT PAN COVER AND CUSHION, REMOVING AND INSTALLING .
-- Disconnect the cover from the seat cushion with passenger occupant detection system pressure sensor -2-. Refer to SEAT PAN COVER AND CUSHION, SEPARATING .
The passenger occupant detection system pressure sensor -2- is permanently glued to the seat cushion -1-. It is not possible to remove and install separately. The passenger occupant detection system pressure sensor must be replaced with the seat cushion.
On vehicles with seat heating, the passenger occupant detection system pressure sensor and the seat heating element are a shared component.
To prevent any removed components from being installed again by mistake, the components should be separated from each other and disposed.
The following work applies to these components.
The components pictured can vary in form and appearance from the present vehicle. However the assembly and functionality are identical.
-- Remove the wiring harness -2- for the passenger occupant detection system pressure sensor -3- from the channel and guide it through the seat cushion -1-.
The components pictured can vary in form and appearance from the present vehicle. However the assembly and functionality are identical.
-- Loosen the passenger occupant detection system pressure sensor -1- from the seat cushion -2- starting from direction of -arrow A- in direction of -arrow B-.
-- Remove the passenger occupant detection system pressure sensor -1- from the seat cushion -2-.
