Removal and Installation

    NOTE: The ignition switch must be in the OFF position for at least 1 minute if disconnecting the Passenger Air Bag Deactivation (PAD) indicator electrical connector. Otherwise, a DTC will be set in the Restraints Control Module (RCM) memory and must be cleared before releasing the vehicle.
  1. Position the ignition switch to the OFF position.
  2. NOTE: When prying on a component, a non-marring tool must be used or damage to the component may occur.
  3. Remove the RH instrument panel finish panel.
    • Starting at the RH side of the RH instrument panel finish panel, use a non-marring tool to pry the RH instrument panel finish panel outward to release the retaining clips.
      • Disconnect the electrical connectors.
