WARNING: If a vehicle has been in a crash, inspect the restraints control module (RCM) and the impact sensor (if equipped) mounting areas for deformation. If damaged, restore the mounting areas to the original production configuration. A new RCM and sensors must be installed whether or not the air bags have deployed. Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious personal injury or death in a crash.
NOTE: The air bag warning indicator illuminates when the correct Restraints Control Module (RCM) fuse is removed and the ignition is ON.
NOTE: The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) must be fully operational and free of faults before releasing the vehicle to the customer.
  1. Depower the SRS. For additional information, Refer to Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) Depowering and Repowering  .
  2. SuperCab: remove the B-pillar trim panel.

    SuperCrew:  remove the C-pillar trim panel.

    For additional information, refer to the Removal and Installation procedures in INTERIOR TRIM AND ORNAMENTATION .

  3. Disconnect the side impact sensor electrical connector.
    4. WARNING: Always tighten the fasteners of the restraints control module (RCM) and impact sensor (if equipped) to the specified torque. Failure to do so may result in incorrect restraint system operation, which increases the risk of personal injury or death in a crash.
    NOTE: Make sure the B- or C-pillar and side impact sensor mating surface is clean and free of foreign material.
  4. Remove the bolt and side impact sensor.
