2002 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE Car seat

CHILD TETHER ANCHOR
DESCRIPTION
All vehicles are equipped with fixed-position, child
seat tether anchors. Vehicles manufactured for sale
in North America have two stamped steel child
tether anchor brackets, one secured with a screw to
each outboard end of the inner liftgate opening
header at the rear of the passenger compartment
(Fig. 10). These child tether anchors are concealed
behind a removable molded plastic cap that snaps
into a bezel located in the headliner over each anchorbracket position. Vehicles manufactured for sale in
Rest-Of-World (ROW) markets have two anchors that
are integral to the back of the right rear seat back
panel, and one that is integral to the left rear seat
back panel (Fig. 11). The North American child seat
tether anchor brackets are available for separate ser-
vice replacement. The ROW child seat tether anchors
cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if faulty or dam-
aged, they must be replaced as a unit with the rear
seat back panel.
OPERATION
See the owner's manual in the vehicle glove box for
more information on the proper use of the factory-in-
stalled child seat tether anchors.
REMOVAL
The following service procedure applies to vehicles
manufactured for sale in North America, which have
removable child seat tether anchor brackets that are
located on the inner liftgate opening header. Vehicles
manufactured for sale in Rest-Of-World (ROW) mar-
kets have child tether anchors that are integral to,
and are only serviced with the rear seat back panels.
(1) Remove the cover from the child tether anchor
bezel in the headliner near the liftgate opening
header.
(2) Remove the screw that secures the child tether
anchor bracket to the inner liftgate opening header
(Fig. 12).
(3) Remove the child tether anchor bracket from
the inner liftgate opening header.Fig. 10 Child Tether Anchors - North America

STANDARD PROCEDURE - CLOCKSPRING CEN-
TERING).
INSTALLATION
The clockspring cannot be repaired. It must be
replaced if faulty or damaged, or if the driver airbag
has been deployed.
If the clockspring is not properly centered in rela-
tion to the steering wheel, steering shaft and steer-
ing gear, it may be damaged. (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/RESTRAINTS/CLOCKSPRING -
STANDARD PROCEDURE - CLOCKSPRING CEN-
TERING). Service replacement clocksprings are
shipped pre-centered and with a locking pin
installed. This locking pin should not be removed
until the clockspring has been installed on the steer-
ing column. If the locking pin is removed before the
clockspring is installed on a steering column, the
clockspring centering procedure must be performed.
WARNING: ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR-
BAGS, DISABLE THE SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
SYSTEM BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY STEERING
WHEEL, STEERING COLUMN, DRIVER AIRBAG,
PASSENGER AIRBAG, FRONT IMPACT SENSOR,
SIDE IMPACT SENSOR, SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG, OR
INSTRUMENT PANEL COMPONENT DIAGNOSIS OR
SERVICE. DISCONNECT AND ISOLATE THE BAT-
TERY 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 ACCI-
DENTAL AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT AND POSSIBLE
PERSONAL INJURY.
NOTE: Before starting this procedure, be certain
that the front wheels are still in the straight-ahead
position.
(1) While holding the centered clockspring rotor
and case stationary in relation to each other, care-
fully slide the clockspring down over the steering col-
umn upper shaft.
(2) Align and seat the three pins on the lower sur-
face of the clockspring rotor hub with the three holes
in the hub of the turn signal cancel cam (Fig. 17). It
should be noted that when the clockspring is prop-
erly centered the uppermost pin on the clockspring
rotor hub is the oblong pin, and it will only fit in the
oblong hole in the hub of the turn signal cancel cam.

three screws that secure it to the left radiator sup-
port vertical member is from bottom to top. Tighten
the screws to 12 N´m (105 in. lbs.).
(5) Reconnect the right or left headlamp and dash
wire harness connector for the front impact sensor to
the sensor connector receptacle.
(6) Reinstall the headlamp mounting module to
the front of the vehicle. (Refer to 23 - BODY/EXTE-

(7) Do not reconnect the battery negative cable at
this time. The supplemental restraint system verifi-
cation test procedure should be performed following
service of any supplemental restraint system compo-
nent. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/RESTRAINTS -

INSTALLATION
The following procedure is for replacement of a
faulty or damaged passenger airbag. If the airbag is
faulty or damaged, but not deployed, review the rec-
ommended procedures for handling non-deployed
supplemental restraints. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
RESTRAINTS - STANDARD PROCEDURE - HAN-
DLING NON-DEPLOYED SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINTS). If the passenger airbag has been
deployed, review the recommended procedures for
service after a supplemental restraint deployment
before removing the airbag from the vehicle. (Refer to
8 - ELECTRICAL/RESTRAINTS - STANDARD PRO-
CEDURE - SERVICE AFTER A SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT DEPLOYMENT).

THIS WARNING COULD RESULT IN OCCUPANT
INJURIES UPON AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT.
(1) Carefully position the passenger airbag onto
the instrument panel structural duct (Fig. 32).
(2) Install and tighten the four screws that secure
the passenger airbag to the instrument panel struc-
tural duct. Tighten the screws to 11.8 N´m (105 in.

connector for the passenger airbag to the passenger
airbag pigtail wire connector. This connector is
secured to the outside of the outboard airbag unit
end bracket. Be certain that the latch on the connec-
tor and the red Connector Position Assurance (CPA)
lock are each fully engaged.
(4) Reinstall the top pad onto the instrument
panel. (Refer to 23 - BODY/INSTRUMENT PANEL/
