INSTALLATION
HINT:
Use the same procedures for the RH side and LH side.
The procedures listed below are for the LH side.
NOTICE:
Never use SRS parts from another vehicle. When re-
placing parts, replace them with new ones.
Never reuse the side airbag sensor assembly in-
volved in a collision when the airbag has deployed.
If the side airbag sensor assembly center has been
dropped, or there are any cracks, dents or other de-
fects in the case, bracket or connector, replace it with
a new one.
When installing the side airbag sensor assembly, be
careful that the SRS wiring does not interfere with
other parts and that it is not pinched between other
parts.
After installing, shake the side airbag sensor assem-
bly to check that there is no looseness.
1. INSTALL SIDE AIRBAG SENSOR ASSEMBLY LH
(a) Install the side airbag sensor assembly LH with the 3
bolts.
Torque: 17.5 N´m (179 kgf´cm, 13 ft´lbf)
(b) Connect the connector to the side airbag sensor assem-
bly LH.
