REMOVAL

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the supplemental restraint system before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the battery 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 accidental airbag deployment.




1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
2. Unsnap the trim cover (4) from over the rain/light sensor (3) on the inside of the windshield below the inside rear view mirror.
3. Disconnect the wire harness connector (2) from the sensor.
4. Unhook the retaining clamp on the sensor from the mounting bracket (1) on the windshield.
5. Remove the sensor from the mounting bracket.
