Installation

Front Side Impact Sensor

CAUTION:
- Do not turn the ignition switch ON and do not connect the battery cable while replacing the side impact sensor.

1. Install the new front side impact sensor with the bolt then connect the SRS harness connector to the front side impact sensor.

Tightening torque
: 4.9 - 6.9 Nm (0.5 - 0.7 kgf.m, 3.6 - 5.1 lb.ft)


2. Install the front door trim.
3. Reconnect the battery negative cable.
4. After installing the front side impact sensor, confirm proper system operation:
A. Turn the ignition switch ON; the SRS indicator light should be turned on for about six seconds and then go off.

CAUTION:
- You must comply with the specified tightening torques with the tool specified because Front - Side Impact Sensors (FSIS, P-SIS) may be broken or POP-NUT may be rotated.
- Problems may be occurred in the durability of P-SIS or impact sensing performance may be depreciated if POP-NUT is rotated.
- The door module must not be transformed because SRSCM judges a impact through the pressure sensed in the door module.

Rear Side Impact Sensor

CAUTION:
- Do not turn the ignition switch ON and do not connect the battery cable while replacing the side impact sensor.

1. Install the new side impact sensor with the bolt then connect the SRS harness connector to the side impact sensor.
