    CAUTION:

    During removal of the seat back trim cover, be certain not to tear or damage the integral nylon pouch that contains the Seat AirBag (SAB). If the nylon pouch or the trim cover are torn or damaged, the entire front seat back trim cover must be replaced with a new unit.

    CAUTION:

    Do not pull on the Seat AirBag (SAB) jumper wire harness take out or pry on the connector insulator to disengage the connector from the SAB inflator connector receptacle. Improper removal of this take out and its connector insulator can result in damage to the airbag circuits or the connector insulator.

  17. Disconnect the SAB jumper wire harness (1) connector from the SAB inflator. Slide the yellow locking tab down, then squeeze the two latch tabs on the connector insulator. Pull the insulator straight out from the inflator to disconnect it from the connector receptacle.
  18. Remove the two nuts (4) that secure the SAB to the outboard side of the seat back frame.
  19. Grasp the outboard side of the seat back trim cover and pull the trim cover and cushion over the top of the seat back frame. This will allow room to remove the SAB without damaging the trim cover or the cushion.
  20. Working between the seat back trim cover and the seat back frame carefully disengage the two SAB studs from the nylon pouch and slide the unit out of the pouch. Be certain not to tear or damage the nylon pouch or the trim cover.
