Driver's Seat Position Sensor Replacement: Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Acura MDX, 2012 Acura MDX, 2011 Acura MDX, and 2010 Acura MDX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE:

Be sure to install the harness wires so they are not pinched or interfere with other parts.
Do not turn the ignition switch to ON (II), and do not connect the battery cable while installing the driver's seat position sensor.

Install the driver's seat position sensor (A) with a new TORX bolt (B) using a TORX T30 bit, then connect the driver's seat wire harness 2P connector (C) to the driver's seat position sensor.
