Occupant Restraint Controller - Installation

INSTALLATION

WARNING: Do not install ORC if mounting location is deformed or damaged. This will cause the ORC to be improperly located and could result in occupant personal injury or death.

WARNING: Use correct screws when installing the ORC.

WARNING: On vehicles equipped with the Occupant Classification System (OCS), never replace both the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) and the Occupant Classification Module (OCM) at the same time. If both require replacement, replace the OCM first. Then perform the Airbag System test including an ignition-On time of at least one minute before replacing the ORC. Both the ORC and the OCM store OCS calibration data, which they transfer to one another during the first minute of ignition-On time after one of them is replaced. If both modules are replaced at the same time, an irreversible fault will be set in both modules.

1. Install the ORC into vehicle (Figure 1).

2. Connect the wire connector to the ORC (Figure 1).

3. Install three bolts holding ORC to floor bracket (Figure 1). Torque bolts to 7.3 - 9.6 Nm (65 to 85 in.lbs.)

4. Install the storage bin onto the instrument panel.

WARNING: Do not connect the battery negative cable. Personal injury or death may result if the system test is not performed first.

5. Verify vehicle and system operation.

6. Close hood.
