Occupant Classification System Sensors

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 Infiniti QX60. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING:
  • When working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Airbag System sensors with the Ignition ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electric power tools or strike near the sensor(s) with a hammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor(s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly causing serious injury.
  • Before servicing SRS, turn ignition switch OFF, disconnect both battery terminals then wait at least 3 minutes.
CAUTION:
  • When working with the metal seat frame, use caution to avoid injury from sharp edges.
  • When removing or installing the seat trim, handle it carefully to keep dirt out and to avoid damage.
  • When removing or installing the seat, use shop cloths to protect components from damage.
  • When disconnecting or connecting the harness and harness connectors, handle them carefully to avoid damage.
