Seat Position Sensor: Installing
- Observe safety precautions for work on airbags. Refer to AIRBAG SYSTEM SAFETY PRECAUTIONS .
- Before handling pyrotechnical components (for example, connecting electrical connector), the person handling them must "discharge static electricity". For example, by briefly touching the door striker pin.
-- Cut the electrical wires on the new seat position sensor to the same length as those on the old sensor.
- The same wire colors must have the same length.
-- Connect the electrical wires with crimp connectors -arrow A- and -arrow B-.
-- Wrap the entire length of the wiring harness from the clip to the seat position sensor with fabric-reinforced adhesive tape.
-- Install the seat position sensor, making sure the hook -arrow C- on the sensor is inserted in the seat pan lower frame.
Further installation is performed in reverse sequence of removal, but observe the following:
Make sure the connectors are installed all the way in and are secure.
Connect the battery with the ignition switched on. Pyrotechnic components could deploy after connecting the battery if they were not repaired correctly. Individuals must not be inside the vehicle when connecting the battery.
-- Connect the battery ground cable with the ignition turned on. Refer to [For transmission(s) 0A6, 09M] Removal and Installation .
If the airbag indicator lamp -K75- indicates a fault after installation, the DTC memory must be checked, deleted and checked again.
