Multi-Contour Seat
-- Position the circuit board -2- for the passenger occupant detection system sensor -1- in the opening in the seat cushion -3-.
-- Align the passenger occupant detection system sensor according to the marks on the seat cushion.
The new passenger occupant detection sensor should be installed in the same location on the seat padding as the old sensor.

Procedure for All Seat Versions
Installation is performed in reverse order of removal, while noting the following:
Make sure the passenger occupant detection system is not covered by the seat heater element heating coils.
Make sure the connectors are installed correctly and are secure.
Ignition must be on when connecting battery. If pyrotechnic components (for example, airbag, belt tensioner) are not repaired correctly, they may deploy unintentionally after connecting battery. There must not be anyone inside the vehicle when connecting the battery.
When working on vehicles with the ignition already switched on or that are ready to drive there is a danger of the engine starting unexpectedly and of being poisoned by gas in enclosed areas. Risk of body parts and/or clothing being clamped or pulled.
Perform the following before switching on the ignition:
- Move the selector lever into P.
- Activate the parking brake
- Turn off the ignition.
- Open the hood
- Connect the charger, such as the :VAS5095A to the jump start of the 12V vehicle electrical system.
- Turn on the ignition.
-- Connect the battery GND cable with the ignition turned on. Refer to BATTERY .
If the Airbag Indicator Lamp -K75- signals a fault after installing, check the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) memory, erase it and check it again. Refer to Vehicle Diagnostic Tester.
