After disconnecting the CONSULT vehicle interface (VI) from the data link connector, the ignition must
be cycled OFF → ON (for at least 5 seconds) → OFF. If this step is not performed, the BCM may not go
to ”sleep mode”, potentially causing a di scharged battery and a no-start condition.

CAUTION:
Due to varying models and option levels, not all parts listed in the chart below apply to all vehicles.
WORK PROCEDURE
1. Before performing any of the following steps, ensur e that all vehicle body and structural repairs have been
completed.
2. Replace the following components:
- Front seat back assembly (on the side on which side air bag is activated).
- Door finisher (on the side on which door-mounted curtain air bag is activated).
- Pop-up roll bar assemblies and pop-up roll bar covers.
Seat belt pre-tensioner assem-
blies
(All applicable locations: buckle,
retractor, lap outer) If the pre-tensioners have NOT been activated:

Rear Side Air Bag Satellite SensorINFOID:0000000009460714
The rear side air bag satellite sensors are located behind the dash
side lower finisher LH and RH. The rear side air bag satellite sen-
sors send signals to the air bag diagnosis sensor unit during a side
collision. These sensors may be identified by yellow connectors.
Front Door Satellite SensorINFOID:0000000009460715
The front door satellite sensors are located in the driver and passen-
ger doors. The sensors detect sudden pressure changes inside the
door cavity and then send signals to the air bag diagnosis sensor
unit during a side collision. These sensors may be identified by yel-
low connectors.
SRS Component ConnectorsINFOID:0000000009460716
DIRECT CONNECT
The following SRS components use dire ct-connect style harness connectors.
• Driver front air bag module
• Passenger front air bag module
• LH side curtain air bag module
• RH side curtain air bag module
• Front LH seat belt pre-tensioner
• Front RH seat belt pre-tensioner
Always pull up to release locking tab prior to removing connector from SRS component.
Always push down to lock locking tab after installing connector to
SRS component. When locked, the locking tab is level with the con-
nector housing.
SLIDE DOUBLE LOCKING
• A new style slide double locking type connector is used on certain systems and components, especially those related to airbag control systems.
• The slide double locking type connectors help prevent incomplete locking and accidental looseness or dis- connection.
• The slide double locking type connectors are disconnected by pushing or pulling the slider. Refer to the fig-
ure below.
